Answer:

simplified = 1000:1 or if asked division then 1/1000

1200: 0.12 is a ratio so to simplify this we remove the decimals and show that the lowest prime factor 2 and lowest denominator =1

= 1000 : 1

We can check and multiply

1200/0.12 = 1000

1 x 1000 = 1000

If the numbers are not ratios and division

then we can show the same = 1/1000
