Actually, it gets stored as 120000. The RDB$FIELD_SCALE value in the domain definition record (RDB$FIELDS) says how many of the rightmost digits should follow the decimal point. If you see "120.0" it is your driver, or some element of your user interface software, that decides how to deal with those trailing zeroes for display.

No. But how are you determining how the number got stored? Is that the result you see from an isql query? Or is it some third-party GUI product?
