16:10 aspect ratio (1.6:1): resolutions and sizes

16:10 means 16 units wide for every 10 tall, so width ÷ height = 1.6 and the height is 62.5% of the width. 16:10 reduces to 8:5. Exact 16:10 sizes are whole multiples of 8 × 5, such as 1920 × 1200 (240 × 8 by 240 × 5).

Your numbers, worked

gcd(1920, 1200) = 240

1920 ÷ 240 = 8

1200 ÷ 240 = 5

1920 ÷ 1200 = 1.6

Show how the gcd was found
  1. 1920 = 1 × 1200 + 720
  2. 1200 = 1 × 720 + 480
  3. 720 = 1 × 480 + 240
  4. 480 = 2 × 240 + 0

Divide the larger side by the smaller, then divide the last divisor by the remainder until the remainder is 0. The last divisor is the gcd.

H = W × 10 ÷ 16 = 1920 × 10 ÷ 16 = 1200

Whole number, so no rounding is needed.

Pixel-exact: a 8:5 size needs the width to be a multiple of 8, and 1920 is 240 × 8.

Questions

What resolutions are 16:10?

1280 × 800, 1440 × 900, 1680 × 1050, 1920 × 1200 and 2560 × 1600 are exactly 16:10. Any size whose width is a multiple of 8 and whose height is the same multiple of 5 is exact.

How do I work out a 16:10 height from a width?

Multiply the width by 5 and divide by 8: 1920 × 5 ÷ 8 = 1200. The other way, width = height × 8 ÷ 5. At 768 px tall the width is 1228.80, so no exact whole-pixel 16:10 size is that tall.

How much of a 16:10 image does a 9:16 crop keep?

35.2%. The share kept is the smaller decimal divided by the larger: 0.563 ÷ 1.6. Padding a 16:10 image to 9:16 instead fills the same share of the canvas.
