Calculate height from width to match aspect ratio

Question

I can not figure this one out...tried alot. I have an application that need images in aspect ratio: 56:37

I need a method that takes the width as input and returns the height that matches the aspect ratio.

Any tips? Im stuck on this one.

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because basic math and not programming. — Alexei Levenkov, Mar 26 '20 at 22:51

In other words applying the formula is =>

(original height / original width) x new width = new height

An aspect ratio of 56:37 means

width:height = 56:37,

or written as a division (or fraction):

width/height = 56/37

which can be rewritten as

height = width*37/56
