Find the aspect ratio of a size

16:9

That is 1.778 wide for every 1 high. 16:9 is used for video, most screens, YouTube.

How to calculate an aspect ratio

  1. To find a ratio, type the width and height in pixels. The simplest ratio appears below, for example 1920 x 1080 is 16:9.
  2. To resize to a ratio, pick one (16:9, 4:3, 1:1 and more) or type your own.
  3. Type the new width and the height follows, or type the height and the width follows.

The ratio is the width divided by the height, written in the smallest whole numbers. Two pictures with the same ratio have the same shape even if they have different sizes.

Heights and widths are rounded to a whole pixel. If a size is only close to a common ratio, such as 1366 x 768, the calculator says so instead of pretending it is exact.
