Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Could this be what you want?

Put the formula =c1/b1 in the desired cell and format this cell with the following "custom" format:

"1:"0.00
