768 pixels is equal to 10.667 inches assuming a standard screen resolution of 72 pixels per inch (ppi).
When converting pixels to inches, the pixels per inch (ppi) value is essential because it defines how many pixels fit within one inch. Using 72 ppi, dividing the number of pixels by 72 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 per inch indicate how many pixels fit along one inch of a display or image. By dividing the pixel count by ppi, you get the length in inches.
For example, if you have 768 pixels and a resolution of 72 ppi, the calculation is:
- 768 pixels ÷ 72 ppi = 10.6667 inches
This means the 768 pixels stretch approximately 10.67 inches on a screen with 72 pixels in every inch.
Conversion Example
- Example: Convert 360 pixels to inches at 72 ppi
- Start with the pixel value: 360 pixels
- Divide by 72 (pixels per inch): 360 ÷ 72 = 5 inches
- The result is 5 inches long.
- Example: Convert 1440 pixels to inches at 96 ppi
- Pixel value is 1440 pixels
- Divide by 96 ppi: 1440 ÷ 96 = 15 inches
- So, 1440 pixels equals 15 inches in this resolution.
- Example: Convert 500 pixels to inches at 100 ppi
- Start with 500 pixels
- Divide by 100 ppi: 500 ÷ 100 = 5 inches
- The length is 5 inches.

Conversion Definitions
Pixels: Pixels are the smallest unit of a digital image or display, representing a single point of color or brightness. Screens show images by arranging many pixels in a grid, where each pixel can have its own color value, contributing to the overall picture.
Inches: Inches are a unit of length measurement used primarily in the United States and some other countries. One inch equals exactly 2.54 centimeters. Inches are often used to measure physical dimensions like screen size, paper, and other objects.
Conversion FAQs
Can the pixels to inches conversion change with different devices?
Yes, the conversion depends on the device’s pixels per inch (ppi) or dots per inch (dpi). A pixel is a digital unit, but inches are physical length. So, the same pixel count can correspond to different inch lengths if the ppi varies, like between screens or printers.
Why do some images look larger or smaller even with same pixel count?
Because physical size depends on resolution. An image with 768 pixels width shown at 72 ppi will appear larger than at 300 ppi. The pixel count is constant, but the pixels per inch determines actual size, causing visual differences.
Is using 72 ppi always correct for converting pixels to inches?
No, 72 ppi is a common default but not universal. Many modern screens have higher ppi values, like 96 or 300 for printers. Using the correct ppi for your context is required for accurate conversions.
How does screen resolution affect printing size from pixels?
Printing uses dots per inch (dpi), which affects print size. An image with 768 pixels at 300 dpi prints smaller (about 2.56 inches) than the same image displayed on a 72 ppi screen (10.67 inches), since print dpi is higher and packs more pixels per inch.
Can pixel aspect ratio influence pixel to inch conversion?
Yes, if pixels are non-square (different width and height), the conversion to inches can vary horizontally and vertically. Most modern displays use square pixels, but knowing pixel shape is necessary for precise physical size calculations.
