 A certain parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field inside

A certain parallel plate capacitor has a uniform electric field inside and stores a certain amount of charge and energy. If this capacitor is replaced with a different parallel plate capacitor in which the magnitude of the electric field is reduced by a factor of 2.68, the area of the plates is increased by a factor of 9.18 and the distance between the plates is reduced by a factor 3.18, by what factor is the amount of stored energy multiplied? Please enter a five ed formats are numbers or "e" based scientific notation e.g. 0.23, -2. 1e6, 5.23e-8
