The image to the right shows the relationship between width, profile and rim size.
Profile is often referred to Aspect Ratio.
Note that Profile / Aspect Ratio is not a dimension but a percentage of the width.
For example a 215/65-15 tire will have a higher (taller) profile / sidewall height than a 205/65-15 tire, even though both have a 65 profile. This is because 65% of 215 is more than 65% of 205.
