The average atomic mass of the given sample of bromine is 8080.

Explanation:

Since they both make up an abundance of 50%50%, just add 7979 and 8181, then divide by 22.

79+81=16079+81=160

160/2=801602=80

The following is probably what your teacher wants you to do. Multiply the given mass numbers by the decimal form for 50%50%, 0.50, and add them together.

(0.50xx79)+(0.50xx81)=(0.50×79)+(0.50×81)=

39.5+40.5=8039.5+40.5=80
