To simplify a ratio with a fraction, eliminate the fraction(s) (by multiplying by the LCD) and then reduce if needed.
Examples:
3/4:2/3 = 9:8 (multiply both by 12)
2 4/7: 1 8/9 = 162:119 (multiply both by 63)

How do you write 4.012 in fraction form?
4.012 is a fraction. The fact that it is expressed as a decimal does not mean it is not a fraction. As a ratio, it can be written as 4012/1000. You may simplify that ratio if you so wish.
What ratio is 42 of 70?
To find the ratio of a fraction, you first need to simplify the fraction. In this case, both numbers can divide by 14, and so we can simplify it to 3/5. To turn this simplified fraction into a ratio, the first number is the numerator, and the second number is the denominator minus the numerator. Thus, the ratio of 42/70 would be 3:2
