Do the Atomic Mass of each element/ compound which makes up air divided by 100 and then times by the percentage that the element exists in air. This should give you the mass that each element/ compound contributes to the atomic mass of air. Add them all together to get the overall atomic mass of air.

(I calculated this and it came out at 25.6 3sf )
