A coke can is similar to a cylinder and so therefore:-
Surface area: (2*pi*radius squared)+(diameter*pi*height)
Volume: pi*radius squared*height

You can take the measurements and use the formulae for a cylinder - that should be close enough. The volume is also specified on the can - usually something around 300 ml.
To obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
surface area/ volume. wider range of surface area to volume is better for cells.
Volume=area * length of that surface
surface area divided by volume
Think of surface area as your skin and volume as all the contents inside your body. So they relate because surface area can hold volume or volume could be inside the surface area.
