What is the address of cell $C$12 in R1C1 notation?

As part of a practice quiz this question was asked and I wrote down R12C3. I was graded incorrect but everywhere I look online it seems I'm correct.

R12C3 would be right, since you can select C12 and switch to R1C1 in Excel => Options => Formulas => R1C1 notation

So if the reference is "A1" then R12C3 would be right.

If the question was meant to be relative to another cell, the notation would be otherwise e.g.: Starting from B3 the R1C1 formula would be R[9]C[1] to reach C12
