HINT: Before solving this question, we must know about the basic conversion of kilometer to meter and meter to kilometer because we are going to use these basic conversions to solve this question, i.e. for the solution of this question.

Complete step-by-step answer:

1 Kilometer = 1000 Meter

Therefore, 1 Meter = \[\dfrac{1}{1000}\] Kilometer

As mentioned in the hint provided above, 1 Kilometer is equal to 1000 Meter.

1 Kilometer = 1000 meter

12 Kilometer = (1000 $\times$ 12) meter

12 Kilometer = 12000 meter

Now, to find how many meters Ramesh runs every day, we will add the 12000 and 120 meter.

Total distance Ramesh covers every morning (in meters) = (12000 + 120) meter

                                                                                                      = 12120 meter

Hence, Ramesh covers 12120 meters every day in the morning.

Therefore, the answer to this question is 12120 meter.

NOTE: We must know some other conversions of different units also:-
1 liter = 1000 milliliter
1 meter = 100 centimeter
1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Etc.

One must do all the calculations in this question very carefully.
Also not only in this question, the students must be very careful while solving any such questions as if there is any mistake in the calculus, then the answer can come out to be wrong.
