Say that a proton has a size of 0.000000000123 and an electron has a size of 1.4x10^-8. How many times smaller is an electron than a proton?

Now I have to change the size of the proton into scientific notation. When I did this I got 1.23x10^-10. Is my answer correct? If not could you tell me how to get the correct answer. Thank you.

correct. You have to move the decimal point in 1.23 to the left 10 places.
