I need to make a graphic that has an aspect ratio of 16:9.

The width must be 145px wide.

How do I work out what the height should be, is there a calculation I can do?

Thanks!

How do I work out what the height should be, is there a calculation I can do?So width:height must be 16:9 for that aspect ratio. You know the width is 145 so the height must be 9/16ths of that

w:h = 16:9
w = 145
145:h = 16:9
=> 145*9/16 = h
