Using this tool

Find the ratio, then solve the missing side

Enter an image width and height to simplify its ratio, or select a common format and provide one dimension to calculate the other. You can choose a local image to detect its pixel dimensions and compare how crop and fit would place it inside the target frame.

Reading the output

The same ratio can have many pixel sizes

Worked example

From 1920 x 1080 to 1280 x 720

A 1920 x 1080 image simplifies to 16:9. If a new 16:9 design is 1280 pixels wide, the matching height is 720 pixels. A 1080 x 1350 social image simplifies to 4:5.

Calculation

Simplify with the greatest common divisor

Simplified ratio = width and height divided by their greatest common divisor. Missing height = known width x ratio height / ratio width. Missing width uses the inverse calculation.

Limitations

Check the destination before cropping

  • Use the exact pixel dimensions from the original file when finding its ratio.
  • Crop can remove content near the edges, while fit can add empty space.
  • Platform upload limits can require a particular pixel size in addition to the correct ratio.

Before relying on the result

Ratios, dimensions and local image privacy

Is my image uploaded to ToolOrbit?

No. The browser reads its dimensions and creates the preview on your device.

What is the best aspect ratio for video?

16:9 is common for landscape video and 9:16 is common for vertical video, but the destination platform should determine the final format.

Does the calculator resize my image?

It calculates dimensions and previews framing. Use the Image Compressor when you need to export a resized image file.
