You need the area to find the volume of an object.
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
finding the volume of a cone
Find the area of the base, find the height of the pyramid. Volume = (1/3)*(area of base)*(height)
to obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
By dividing the area into the volume: width = volume/area
That would be a volume, not an area...
i am not sure you can...
Surface Area: 2πr2 + 2πrh Volume: πr2h
1) Calculate the area 2) Calculate the volume 3) Divide the area by the volume to get the ratio
Volume = Base Area * Height So Height = Volume/Base Area
The formula for volume is side cubed, and the formula for a square's area is side squared, so you find the cube root of the volume and square your answer to find area.
