The feed ratio should be on the plate attached to the feed gear box which lists the change gears for desired feed (unless your plate is missing). On my 24/N machine, single index machine it is .150 (plate says............ "feed required /.150" )
Does your machine have this plate? what are you cutting? a spur or helical gear? I can give you what my machine has for the feed gears for various feeds listed on the plate.
