An aspect ratio calculator determines the proportional relationship between width and height, expressed as W:H. It lets you scale dimensions while preserving the original ratio to prevent distortion.

Formule

Scale by width: New Height = Original Height × (New Width ÷ Original Width)

Guide étape par étape

  1. 1Aspect Ratio = Width : Height, simplified by dividing both by their GCD
