A precipitate is a product of a reaction that is insoluble in the reaction medium (usually water).
Why?
One of the signs that a reaction happened is that a precipitate forms. Let's take the reaction between Silver Nitrate (AgNO₃) and Sodium Chloride (NaCl) as an example:
AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s)↓ + NaNO₃(aq)
In this reaction, Silver Chloride (AgCl) is an insoluble product of the reaction, and precipitates out of the reaction medium
If we write down the ionic equation, we find out the following:
Ag⁺ + NO₃⁻ + Na⁺ + Cl⁻ → AgCl(s) + Na⁺ + NO₃⁻
The ions that appear at both sides of the arrow are called spectator ions, since they are not directly involved in the process of the reaction, making the net ionic equation to be:
Ag⁺ + NO₃⁻ → AgCl(s)
Have a nice day!

Hello,
In this case, given the balanced reaction:

We can see a 2:4 mole ration between permanganate ion (118.9 g/mol) and manganese (IV) oxide (86.9 g/mol), that is why the resulting mas of this last one turns out:
