Aspect Ratio Calculator
A ratio compares two or more quantities of the same kind. Written as a:b or a/b. Ratios are used in recipes (3:1 flour to water), maps (1:50,000), financial analysis (P/E ratio), and mixing (2-stroke fuel). A proportion is an equation stating two ratios are equal.

Pro Tip
Cross multiplication solves proportions: if 3/4 = x/12, then 3×12 = 4×x → x = 36/4 = 9. Also useful for unit conversion: x miles / y km = 1 mile / 1.609 km → solve for x.
