The passcode will be the code that you created when you set up the Mac. If you didn't create the code and you don't know it, as long as you know the code that was used when you set up the Apple ID that it is assigned to. If you know that then you'll be able to unlock it either by following the instructions here or restarting the computer to factory default. If you don't know the Apple ID then you are going to have a paperweight as there isn't a way past the Activation Lock as it is designed to keep unauthorized users from getting access to the computer. Would be pretty useless if someone could just get past it.
