How to use

Enter the values requested above. Reduce an A:B ratio and calculate the matching value when you know one side of the proportion. The result is calculated in your browser.

Formula

Simplified ratio = A ÷ gcd(A, B) : B ÷ gcd(A, B). Matching B = known A × B ÷ A.

Example

If a 2:3 ratio has A = 10, what is B?

The ratio simplifies to 2:3, so B is 15 when A is 10.
