Look for the tag on the axle (doubt it's still there). There's a method for driveshaft turns to wheel turns you can look that up.
Otherwise you have to take the dif cover off and look at the stamp.

^^^he got to it first
there should be a tag on the cover that has the ratio on it. Or you could pull the cover and there will be a number stamped on the ring gear for the ring and pinion teeth count.
