to obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
Notice the exponents in these two statements.Those little tiny numbers tell the whole big story:(the ratio of the surface areas of similar figures) = (the ratio of their linear dimensions)2(the ratio of the volumes of similar solids) = (the ratio of their linear dimensions)3
The surface area of a polyhedron can be calculated by first calculating the area of each of its polygonal surfaces and adding these together.The surface area of some curved solids (sphere, cylinder, cone) can be calculated from formula but for most curved solids are more complicated and require integration.
For any cube with sides of length 'S':The area of each face is S2 .The total surface area is 6S2 .The volume is S3 .The ratio of surface area to volume is ( 6S2/S3 ) = 6/S .If 'S' is 0.2, then the ratio is (6/0.2) = 30.====================================Note:We're uncomfortable with this whole thing, because it deals exclusivelywith the numbers, and it completely ignores the units and dimensions.
to find the surface area you have to first find the area of each part then add the areas together.
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.

you put: a squared over b squared = surface area of the smaller solid over surface area of the bigger solid
1) Calculate the area 2) Calculate the volume 3) Divide the area by the volume to get the ratio

The surface-area-to-volume ratio also called the surface-to-volume ratio and variously denoted sa/volor SA:V, is the amount of surface area per unit volume of an object or collection of objects. The surface-area-to-volume ratio is measured in units of inverse distance. A cube with sides of length a will have a surface area of 6a2 and a volume of a3. The surface to volume ratio for a cube is thus shown as .For a given shape, SA:V is inversely proportional to size. A cube 2 m on a side has a ratio of 3 m−1, half that of a cube 1 m on a side. On the converse, preserving SA:V as size increases requires changing to a less compact shape.

It depends on the surface area of what!
The ratio of the surface areas of two similar objects is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding linear dimensions. Since the diameter of the moon is one fourth of the diameter of the Earth, the ratio of their diameters is 1:4. Therefore, the ratio of their surface areas is (1/4)^2 = 1/16. This means that the surface area of the moon is 1/16th of the surface area of the Earth.
well the answer for an orange and apples is 13 oranges and 8 apples the ratio would be 13:8 so measure the animal ad find the volume of the animal and put it as a ratio
