An easier way may be to simply chock the front wheels, jack up the rear end on the differential, place the vehicle in neutral, and while an assistant turns a rear wheel, count the number of times the driveline revolves for one revolution of the wheel. it'll be something on the order of 3.75 (3.73-1 ratio), 4 (4.11-1), or 3.5 (3.53) revolutions of the driveline per one rotation of the wheel.
Open the cover, count the teeth on the big gear ( the ring gear ) next count the teeth on the small gear ( the pinion gear). Divide the big gear by the little gear and that is your ratio.
