Given expression is


1.2*10^(-3)\text{ amps}

given 1 milliamp =1*10^-3 amps.

So, 1 amps=10^3 miliiamps.

So,


\begin{gathered} 1.2*10^(-3)=1.2*10^(-3)*10^3 \\ =1.2 \end{gathered}

As per the calculations, and the instruction given in the question, after expressing the given expression in milliamps, the final value should be 1.2

So, no option is correct.
