1080 ÷ 40 = 27

2560 ÷ 1080 = 2.3704

Show how the gcd was found
  1. 2560 = 2 × 1080 + 400
  2. 1080 = 2 × 400 + 280
  3. 400 = 1 × 280 + 120
  4. 280 = 2 × 120 + 40
  5. 120 = 3 × 40 + 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.

Questions

What aspect ratio is 2560x1080?

2560 × 1080 is 64:27 (2.37:1). Dividing both sides by their greatest common divisor, 40, gives 64 and 27. The nearest named ratio is 21:9, 1.59% away, so it is close to 21:9 but not exactly it.
