First work out the balanced Chemical equation for the combustion of the fuel concerned. That will give you the amount of Oxygen needed.

Convert the amount of fuel to be burned into to molar quantities and this will in tun tell you haw many moles of Oxygen will be needed.

You then need to determine how much air (say by volume) contains that number of moles of Oxygen, given that air is only 21% oxygen.
