Question
How is the sphere surface and the diameter formule?

Answer
Mario~
    It is difficult for me to understand what your question is. Are you asking me how is the sphere surface area related to the diameter? Or are you asking me for the formula for the surface area of a sphere in terms of the diameter measure? Or are you just wanting a formula??

The surface area of a sphere is 4*pi*r^2 which would be the same as 4*pi*(d/2)^2 = 4*pi*d^2/4 = pi*d^2

Let me know if there is still something you want answered!
