Ratio Calculator

Simplify ratios, find equivalent ratios, and solve proportion problems. Scale ratios up or down while maintaining the relationship.

What is Ratio Calculator?

This ratio calculator simplifies ratios to their lowest terms, finds equivalent ratios, and solves missing-value proportion problems (if a:b = c:x, find x). Supports 2-part and 3-part ratios with decimal and fraction inputs.

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter your First Value (A), Second Value (B) in the input fields provided
  2. Results are computed instantly as you enter or modify values — no need to click a button
  3. Review the computed output showing your ratio results with a detailed breakdown
  4. Cross-check the output with your manual working to reinforce the underlying concept

How Ratio Calculator is Calculated

This calculator implements standard mathematical formulas for ratio operations. Computations follow established mathematical principles from standard textbooks. Results are precise to the level of JavaScript floating-point arithmetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I simplify a ratio?

Divide both parts by their greatest common divisor (GCD). Ratio 24:36 → GCD is 12 → simplified to 2:3. For three-part ratios like 12:18:24, GCD is 6, giving 2:3:4.

How do I solve a proportion?

Cross multiply. If 3:5 = x:20, then 3 × 20 = 5 × x → 60 = 5x → x = 12. This works for recipe scaling, map distances, and any proportional relationship.
