You have to set up a system of two equations - one will be mass + mass, second will be number of moles + number of moles. You have two unknowns - be it masses of both substances - that can be inserted into these two equations (hint: you will need their molar masses).

You also better read forum rules:

Qazzian:
Should that be NaHCO3, or Na2CO3?

Does it matter?

Qazzian:
Wouldn't it matter for the number of moles HCl to neutrilize it?
