You need to determine the size of your Ukulele. It is determined by measuring the length between the nut to the bridge of the instrument. The video linked below show you how to measure and what sizes they are.
If you know what size of ukulele it is and what tuning you will be using then there's no real problem, string makers indicate on the packet (or in advertising) what size the strings are designed to fit. You also need to make sure that the set you acquire has the proper strings for your tuning, such as Low G or High G
If in any doubt the best thing to do is take your instrument to a music store that sells ukuleles, they should also sell strings.
WARNING fitting the wrong strings can seriously damage the instrument.
