Explanation

For a square pyramid with slant height 4 m and slant surface area 12 m², we find: slant surface area = (1/2) × perimeter × slant height, so 12 = (1/2) × 4p, giving perimeter p = 6 m. Each side of base = 6/4 = 1.5 m, so base area = 1.5 × 1.5 = 2.25 m². Total surface area = 12 + 2.25 = 14.25 m². Ratio = 12/14.25 = 48/57 = 16/19.
