Well, since the question stresses the word "neutral" it's safe to assume that the answer they're looking for is "equal numbers of protons and electrons"; or further, "14 protons and 14 electrons".
An atom is neutral when the number of electrons balances the number of protons. Because the positive charge of a proton cancels out the negative charge of an electron, equal numbers cause the particle to have no net charge - neutral.
