Elara Bennett900 pixels is equal to 12.5 inches.
Table of Contents
This conversion assumes a screen resolution of 72 pixels per inch (PPI), which means each inch contains 72 pixels. By dividing the number of pixels by the PPI, you get the length in inches. So, 900 pixels divided by 72 PPI equals 12.5 inches.

Conversion Formula
The formula to convert pixels to inches is:
Inches = Pixels ÷ Pixels per Inch (PPI)
Pixels per inch depends on the device or display settings, but 72 PPI is a common standard for screens. Pixels represents the number of pixels you want to convert, and dividing by 72 gives the equivalent length in inches.
For example, converting 900 pixels to inches:
- Start with 900 pixels
- Divide by 72 PPI: 900 ÷ 72
- Result: 12.5 inches
This works because 72 pixels make up one inch on screen, so dividing finds how many inches fit into the pixel count.
Conversion Example
- Convert 450 pixels to inches:
- Divide 450 by 72
- 450 ÷ 72 = 6.25 inches
- So, 450 pixels equals 6.25 inches
- Convert 1080 pixels to inches:
- Divide 1080 by 72
- 1080 ÷ 72 = 15 inches
- Therefore, 1080 pixels equals 15 inches
- Convert 360 pixels to inches:
- Divide 360 by 72
- 360 ÷ 72 = 5 inches
- Thus, 360 pixels equals 5 inches
- Convert 720 pixels to inches:
- Divide 720 by 72
- 720 ÷ 72 = 10 inches
- So, 720 pixels equals 10 inches

Conversion Definitions
Pixels: A pixel is the smallest unit of a digital image or display, representing a single point of color. Screens displays images by combining many pixels in grids. Pixel density, measured in pixels per inch (PPI), affects the clarity and size of the image on the screen.
Inches: Inches is a unit of length in the imperial system, commonly used in the United States. One inch equals 2.54 centimeters. Inches measure physical dimensions like screen size or printed images, converting digital pixels into real-world sizes requires knowing pixels per inch.
Conversion FAQs
Why does the pixels to inches conversion depend on PPI?
Pixels alone do not have a fixed physical size, because the size depends on the pixel density of the device or medium. Pixels per inch (PPI) defines how many pixels fit into an inch. Without knowing PPI, converting pixels to inches isn’t possible, since the same pixel count can represent different physical sizes.
Can I convert pixels to inches for any screen?
You can convert pixels to inches if you know the screen’s pixel density (PPI). Different screens have different PPI values, like 72, 96, or higher for modern displays. Using the correct PPI ensures the conversion reflects the actual physical size on that specific screen or device.
What happens if I use the wrong PPI in conversion?
Using a wrong PPI value will produce inaccurate inch measurements. For example, if you assume 72 PPI but the device uses 96 PPI, the calculated inch size will be larger than the true size. This can cause layout or print sizing issues where precise dimensions are needed.
Is 72 PPI the standard for all digital images?
No, 72 PPI is a common but not universal standard. Many devices and images use 96 PPI or higher densities, especially modern screens. Always check the actual PPI setting for accurate conversion, because it directly affects how pixels translate to inches.
How to find the PPI of my screen?
To find your screen’s PPI, you need its resolution (pixel dimensions) and physical size in inches. Divide the pixel count by the size in inches for width and height, then calculate the diagonal PPI using the Pythagorean theorem. Online tools also exist to help with PPI calculation.
