Answer:

1,3-dibromobenzene

Explanation:

An image of the compound described in the question is attached to this answer.

We need to reiterate here the rules of IUPAC nomenclature. The substituents in a compound must be named in such a way that they have the lowest number.

The compound described may also be named as 1,5-dibromobenzene but this name is disallowed because it gives the substituents a higher number than 1,3-dibromobenzene.
