    I'm not sure of what you are asking, but the ratio of rise to run (whatever they might be) is given by:

    rise : run

    and you replace rise by its value, and run by its value, and then simplify.

    Say the length of the tail of a mouse is 10 cm and the length of the mouse is 20 cm. The ratio if its tail to its whole body is 10 : 20 = 1 : 2
