In a certain population of fruit flies, 640 out of 1000 have red eyes, while the remainder have sepia eyes. The sepia eye trait is recessive to red eyes. If the population is in H-W equilibrium, how many individuals would you expect to be homozygous for red eye color?

In a population of 1000 fruit flies, 360 have red eyes and the remainder have sepia eyes. The sepia eye trait is recessive to red eyes. How many individuals would you expect to be homozygous for red eye color if the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
