The mass of a neutron is approx 1837 times that of an electron. The mass of a proton is similar to that of a neutron.

In the simplest atom, hydrogen, the mass of the nucleus is 1,837 times that of an electron.

In the largest known atom, that of ununoctium, containing 281 baryons (neutrons or protons) the mass of the nucleus is approx 516,200 times that of an electron.

So take your pick: 1,837 to 516,200.
