"Oval" can be a variety of shapes. I suggest you use the equation for the area of an ellipse. Assume some convenient ratio of length-to-width.
There are several different "oval" shapes. A running track, which comprises two semicircles separated by two straight stretches is an oval. So is the cross section of an egg - a shape in which the cross-sectional width does not change uniformly. Another example is the ellipse. Because all these shapes are called ovals, there is no single name.
The width of a rectangle is the length of the shorter side.
You times length by width
measure it
To crochet an oval sphere, start by crocheting a chain of stitches in the desired length of the oval's long side. Then, work in rounds, increasing stitches at the ends of the oval to create a rounded shape. Continue increasing until the oval reaches the desired width, then work even until the sphere is the desired length. Finish off by decreasing stitches to close the sphere.
A circle has the same diameter around its border, while an oval is longer than its width.
To crochet an oval ball, start with a magic ring and work in continuous rounds, increasing stitches evenly on each round until you reach the desired width and length. Use single crochet stitches for a smooth finish.

Half of the height times half of the width time pi (3.1415926535897)

A 3d oval is called an ovoid. Egg would work as well
An oval face shape is characterized by a balanced proportions where the length of the face is about 1.5 times the width. The forehead is slightly wider than the chin, and the jawline is rounded rather than sharp. Oval faces are versatile and can pull off a variety of hairstyles and makeup looks.

length*width = 2*width*width i.e square the width and multiply by 2
