See the section "If you can’t remember the password for my encrypted backup" in:
About encrypted backups in iTunes - Apple Support
Unfortunately, there is really no way around it. However, you do get an unlimited number of guesses. So keep trying or:
- Try using an iCloud backup instead. If you don't have an iCloud backup, you can make one.
- If it's still relevant, try using an older iTunes backup.
