Two isolated ponds, A and B, each start with a fish population of 200 individuals. In pond A the population doubles to 400 after 3 months and reaches 800 after 12 months. In pond B the population triples to 600 after 3 months and reaches 1200 after 12 months. Assuming logistic growth \( \frac{dN}{dt}=rN\left(1-\frac{N}{K}\right) \) with the same intrinsic rate \(r\) for both ponds, determine the ratio of the carrying capacities \(K_{A}:K_{B}\). Express your answer in the simplest integer ratio.
