It is very easy if you have a copy of the Periodic Table of elements handy. The Atomic Mass is mass of the atom. The mass of an atom is made up primarily by the protons and neutrons. You should round down to the nearest even number and divide by two, because although electrons do make up part of the mass, they do not make up very much if it. That is the mass of the protons and the neutrons. Then divide that number by the amount of protons in the atom, and that gives you the mass of one proton. Same thing applies for a neutron.
