All you have to do is add up the atomic number of sulfur plus two of the atomic number of oxygen. I would do it for you but unfortunately I do not have a periodic table handy!

Add up masses from the periodic table: the molar mass of sulphur + twice the molar mass of oxygen:
MM S + 2*(MM 0) = MM SO2
32.07g/mole + 2(16.00 g/mole) = 64.07 g/mole
This is true because the subscript in the formula states that for every mole of sulphur, there are two moles of oxygen, so the same is true with the mass: since one mole of sulphur dioxide contains one mole of sulphur and two moles of oxygen, the mass of one mole of sulphur dioxide would contain the mass of one mole of sulphur and two moles of oxygen.
