R = pl\A
Where,
R = resistance
p= Resistivity
l = length of wire
A = area of cross section of wire.
p = R*A\l

The resistance of a given material is proportional to the length, but inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area. Thus resistivity can be expressed using the SI unit "ohm metre" (Ω⋅m) — i.e. ohms divided by metres (for the length) and then multiplied by square metres (for the cross-sectional area).
