Ratio Converter

Simplify a ratio and convert it to decimal and percentage forms.

Simplified ratio

Decimal

Percentage

Compare two values

The second value must be nonzero. Integer ratios are reduced by their greatest common divisor.

Worked example and guidance

Use Ratio Converter with a checkable example

Example input

12:18

Expected output

2:3

For the example above, the output should be read as an equivalent representation within the converter's supported subset. Ratio Converter performs the browser-side transformation or calculation, but the mathematical convention, units, domain, and intended publishing format still come from your problem.

How to use it

  1. Enter or paste a small known source value or notation before using a larger real-world example.
  2. Choose the required options and run Ratio Converter; keep the original input available for comparison.
  3. Read the result together with its round-trip meaning and destination compatibility, then copy or export only after the check passes.

Useful for

  • Moving data into a publishing format
  • Checking a second representation
  • Creating copy-ready output for another application

Limits and checks

  • Not every source feature has an exact target equivalent
  • Whitespace and visual styling may change
  • Always test the output in the destination application

Ratio Converter FAQ

Does Ratio Converter upload my input?

No. The published tool runs in the browser. Avoid placing confidential material in share URLs or exported files that you later send elsewhere.

How should I verify a Ratio Converter result?

Start with the worked example, inspect the round-trip meaning and destination compatibility, and compare one result with an independent calculation or representation.

What should I do when the input is rejected?

Reduce the input to the smallest failing source value or notation, check delimiters and supported syntax, then add the remaining structure back one step at a time.
