Well, you have got us here mate....

Explanation:

I presume that you performed an acid base reaction with a known amount of #HCl(aq)#...and this reacts with your base according to the equation....

#M(OH)_2(s) + 2HCl(aq) rarr MCl_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l)#

The acid in excess is then titrated with #NaOH(aq)# of KNOWN concentration....we can thus get back to the concentration or molar quantity of #M(OH)_2#...as it stands the question (and answer) are hypothetical...
