2:3 aspect ratio (1:1.5): resolutions and sizes
2:3 means 2 units wide for every 3 tall, so width ÷ height = 0.667 and the height is 150% of the width. Exact 2:3 sizes are whole multiples of 2 × 3, such as 1080 × 1620 (540 × 2 by 540 × 3).

Your numbers, worked
gcd(1080, 1620) = 540
1080 ÷ 540 = 2
1620 ÷ 540 = 3
1080 ÷ 1620 = 0.6667
Show how the gcd was found
- 1620 = 1 × 1080 + 540
- 1080 = 2 × 540 + 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 × 3 ÷ 2 = 1080 × 3 ÷ 2 = 1620
Whole number, so no rounding is needed.
Pixel-exact: a 2:3 size needs the width to be a multiple of 2, and 1080 is 540 × 2.
Questions
What resolutions are 2:3?
360 × 540, 720 × 1080, 1080 × 1620, 1440 × 2160 and 2160 × 3240 are exactly 2:3. Any size whose width is a multiple of 2 and whose height is the same multiple of 3 is exact.
How do I work out a 2:3 height from a width?
Multiply the width by 3 and divide by 2: 1080 × 3 ÷ 2 = 1620. The other way, width = height × 2 ÷ 3.
How much of a 2:3 image does a 1.91:1 crop keep?
34.9%. The share kept is the smaller decimal divided by the larger: 0.667 ÷ 1.91. Padding a 2:3 image to 1.91:1 instead fills the same share of the canvas.
