If the second substance if water, then it is specific gravity. Otherwise, it is just relative density.

Specific heat is dimensionless, and dimensionless units have the same value in any system. Specific heat is the ratio between two densities - that of the substance considered, and that of water. The ratio of two quantities of the same dimension will naturally be a dimensionless number.
An abstract, esoteric mathematical operation known as "division." Divide mass by density, and you get volume. A note for purists: Technically speaking, specific gravity is not density, it is a ratio of densities. However, since one of the materials in the ratio is water, and its density is well known, it's easy to calculate the density of a material from its specific gravity.
If the ratio of similarity is 310, then the ratio of their area is 96100.
