Best Answer

compression ratio = compressed size / uncompressed size

the ratio should be between 1 and 0 (multiply with 100 to get the ratio in percent)

a ratio greater than 1 means, the compressed size is actually greater than the uncompressed size

a ratio just below 1 means bad compression

the lower the ratio, the better the compression
