what are u using? photoshop?

if so, changing image size will do just that, resize it, while retaining the same number of pixels.

so same pixels but smaller area = higher resolution

what u should do is change canvas size, which will crop the edges as needed(use the %)

That's because you are using the wrong tool.

For cropping, you are supposed to use the Rectangular Marguee Tool(the dotted box) and set the dimensions to 2:3 or 3:2 and just define the area you want.

You should not be using the Document size option in the Image Size section.
