You can use the crop tool, choose "fixed aspect ratio" and enter 4:3/

Aalternately you can use the menu item image→scale image:
enter two numbers that are in that ratio, to squish or stretch your
image so it fits.

You can get GIMP to do the calculation for you with scale image, too:
if your image is 3019 x 2807 pixels in size, leave the width as 3019,
and change the height to
    3019 * 3/4
Or, leave the width at 2807 and change the height to
    2807 * 4/3
Then press tab and gimp will work out the numbers.
