Maybe you do it using Kw ...
Find the concentration of the weak acid using c= n/v where c is concentration, n is moles and v is volume...
then find the concentration of base using the same formula... since the base is strong , OH concentration is the same as the base itself.i.e.NaOH ...

Now use,
Kw = [H+] [OH-]
use Kw as 10^-14
and conc of OH u calculated earlier..
find conc of H+ ions...the rest is simple...
