volume ratio = 1331/729 which is the cube of the linear scale factor.
To find the linear scale factor, let find the cubic root of the numerator & the denominator:

∛1331 = ∛11³  = 11

&  ∛729 = ∛9³  = 9

So the linear scale is 11/9 ==> then the ratio of their surface area will be:

11²/9² ==> 121/81.
Note, if you have a linear scale, then the surface will be the square othis scale & the volume will be the cube of the linear scale
