Look in the Periodic Table in school text books or revision guides - the number of protons in an atom is the same as the atomic number. In most periodic tables the atomic number is the subscript number next to the symbol of the element. The other number is the Atomic Mass - usually shown as the superscript number next to the symbol of the element. The atomic number is the smaller of the two numbers.
