How do I calculate an aspect ratio?

Divide the width and height by their greatest common divisor: 1920 × 1080 divided by 120 is 16:9. Some screens are not exact, such as 1366 × 768, which is 683:384 but close enough to 16:9 to be called that.

What is the difference between 2.39:1 and 21:9?

2.39:1 is the anamorphic cinema scope ratio used in theatrical releases. 21:9 is a marketing name for ultrawide monitors and is really about 2.37:1 (2560 × 1080) or 2.39:1 (3440 × 1440), so the two are close but not the same.

Why round to even numbers?

H.264, HEVC and most other video codecs store color at half resolution, so widths and heights must be divisible by two. An odd size makes the export fail or adds a line of padding.
