1 Total Cholesterol/HDL: this ratio is determined when you divide total cholesterol into the HDL cholesterol in the body. 2  For instance, if an individual has total cholesterol of 240 mg/dl and HDL cholesterol of 30 mg/dl, then the Total/HDL ratio gives 8:1. 3  The ideal ratio for the body should be 3.5:1 or below.
From these results various ratios can be calculated. The most common cholesterol ratios used to assess risk of heart disease are the Total Cholesterol/HDL ratio and the LDL/HDL ratio. The ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol is determined by dividing one's total cholesterol by their HDL. For instance, if an individual has an HDL cholesterol reading of 50 and a total cholesterol reading of 200 their total/HDL ratio would be 4.0.
