The energy-level diagram for atomic and molecular orbitals in NO is given below.

Energy-level diagram of atomic and molecular orbitals for NO, showing electron configurations.

If the same model is followed, count the number of MOs involved for the IBr molecule. Note: use only the valence atomic orbitals of I atom and Br atom.
