The Atomic Mass of an element is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. It is not directly related to the atomic number, which represents the number of protons in an atom.

Atomic mass NUMBER = number of protons + number of neutrons.

This is not to be confused with atomic mass which is the total mass of a motionless atom.
