For this case we have a number written in scientific notation.
By definition we have to:
The use of this notation is based on base powers 10.
A number written in scientific notation follows the following pattern:

m * 10 ^ e
The number m is called "mantissa" and e the "order of magnitude"
For this case we have:

m = 1.25 e = -19
Using the definition, we have that the number can be rewritten as:

+1.25 E -19 = 1.25 * 10 ^ {-19}

1.25 * 10 ^ {-19} = 0.000,000,000,000,000,000,125
Answer:
an expression that this number is:

1.25 * 10 ^ {-19} = 0.000,000,000,000,000,000,125
