I have a gear train with 2 spur gears, 2 bevel gears.

I wanted to know if someone could guide on how to calculate the backlash for these gears and what I need know and do to acheive this.

The train has a one shaft with the bevel gear and spur gear inch apart on the shaft. The spur gear drives another larger driven spur gear, and the bevel gear drives another larger bevel gear at 90-degree between its axis.
 
Which specification is it designed to. ISO or AGMA . You will find an answer there. Back lash is depended on diametral pitch or mod. And pressure angle.
