I don't see anything wrong. I think it's confusing to write the numbers as you have. It's easier to see if you write it as
31Ga68-> 30Zn68 + 1e0
Your teacher may want you to write +1beta0 for the 1e0. A positron is a positive beta (electron) particle.

Looks like I just had to change it from a 1 to a +1. Thank you!
