Not possible without screwing up the aspect ratio.....   

Think about it....   3 is the vertical ratio number...  and you would be 
stretching it to 9   or multiplying by 3.

In order to keep the horizontal at the same ratio, multiply by 3 and get 12.

12:9  would be correct.   16:9  would be stretching the horizontal.
