768 pixels is equal to 10.6667 inches when converted using a standard screen resolution of 72 pixels per inch (PPI).
Pixels measure the count of tiny dots that make up an image on a screen, while inches measure physical length. To convert pixels to inches, divide the pixel number by the pixels per inch value, which is often 72 for screens. So, 768 pixels divided by 72 PPI gives the length in inches.

Conversion Formula
The formula to convert pixels to inches is:
Inches = Pixels ÷ Pixels per Inch (PPI)
This works because pixels are count units for digital displays, but inches measure lengths physically. The PPI value indicates how many pixels fit in one inch on a screen or image.
For example, with 768 pixels and 72 PPI:
- Start with 768 pixels
- Divide by the pixel density: 72 pixels per inch
- 768 ÷ 72 = 10.6667 inches
So, 768 pixels corresponds to about 10.67 inches at 72 PPI.
Conversion Example
- Example: Convert 360 pixels to inches
- Take pixel value: 360
- Divide by 72 PPI: 360 ÷ 72 = 5 inches
- Result: 360 pixels equals 5 inches
- Example: Convert 1440 pixels to inches
- Pixel count: 1440
- Divide by 72: 1440 ÷ 72 = 20 inches
- Answer is 20 inches
- Example: Convert 96 pixels to inches
- Value: 96 pixels
- Divide 96 by 72: 96 ÷ 72 = 1.3333 inches
- So, 96 pixels equals about 1.33 inches

Conversion Definitions
Pixels: Pixels are the smallest units that compose digital images on screens. Each pixel represents a single point of color or brightness, combining with others to create the full picture. Pixel count defines image resolution but does not directly tell physical size without knowing pixel density.
Inches: Inches are a unit of length in the imperial measurement system, used to measure physical dimensions. One inch equals 2.54 centimeters. Inches describe real-world sizes such as screen dimensions, print sizes, or objects, making it useful for translating digital pixel counts into tangible measurements.
Conversion FAQs
Why does the pixels to inches conversion depend on pixels per inch (PPI)?
The pixels number alone can’t determine length because pixels are count units, not physical. The PPI value sets how many pixels fit into one inch on a device or image. Different screens or printers have different PPI, so the same pixel count can mean different physical sizes.
Can I convert pixels to inches without knowing PPI?
No, you can’t. Pixels measure resolution, but inches measure length. Without PPI, which links the two, conversion is impossible. You must know or assume a PPI value to calculate inches from pixels.
Does screen resolution affect pixel to inch conversion accuracy?
Yes, screen resolution defines PPI. Higher resolution screens have more pixels per inch, making physical size smaller for same pixel count. Using a wrong PPI leads to incorrect inch measurements.
Why is 72 PPI often used for converting pixels to inches?
72 PPI became a standard from older screen displays and graphic design. Many design tools default to 72 PPI for simplicity, but modern devices commonly use higher PPI values, so results may vary depending on actual device specs.
Are pixel to inch conversions the same for digital images and printed images?
No, printed images often use higher PPI (like 300) for quality. Pixel to inch conversion for print depends on print resolution, which differs from screen resolution. Therefore, same pixel count can produce smaller physical size in print than on screen.
