I am sure this will be a “slap my forehead” kind of answer but, I must ask for help no matter how embarrassed I will become.
Thank you

You're putting your ratios backwards
480:640 = .75
3:4 = .75
Same for 4x6... just reverse your ratios so that the smaller number matches the location of the smaller number in both situations.
So, is your forehead red yet?
