Need help with this chemistry problem.

A buffer prepared by mixing equal amounts of the salts Na2HPO4 and NaH2PO4, to give a total phosphate concentration of 0.1M. Calculate the concentration if Na+ ions in the buffer.

Any help would be much appreciated. Steps would be good thanks.

If total concentration of phosphate is 0.1, and concentrations of both salts are identical, what are concentrations of both salts?
