1,500 × 2,000 pixels in inches at every common resolution
The physical size depends entirely on the density you print or display at — these are the values people look up most.
| Resolution | Width × height in inches | In centimetres |
|---|---|---|
| 72 PPI | 20.833 × 27.778 | 52.917 × 70.556 |
| 96 PPI | 15.625 × 20.833 | 39.688 × 52.917 |
| 150 PPI | 10 × 13.333 | 25.4 × 33.867 |
| 300 PPI | 5 × 6.6667 | 12.7 × 16.933 |
| 600 PPI | 2.5 × 3.3333 | 6.35 × 8.4667 |
How the conversion works
Inches are found by dividing the pixel count by the pixel density: inches = pixels ÷ PPI. For 1,500 × 2,000 pixels at 96 PPI that is 1,500 ÷ 96 = 15.625 and 2,000 ÷ 96 = 20.833.
Printed at 300 DPI it covers 5 × 6.6667 inches, close to a 5 × 7 print.
At that size a print is held or read close up, where 300 DPI is the density to work to. On a 96 PPI screen the same pixels span 15.625 × 20.833 inches.
That is 3 megapixels in total, in 3:4 proportion. In metric the 300 DPI print measures 12.7 × 16.933 cm.
Frequently asked questions
How many inches is 1,500 × 2,000 pixels?
15.625 × 20.833 inches at 96 PPI, 10 × 13.333 inches at 150 DPI and 5 × 6.6667 inches at 300 DPI. Divide the pixels by the density you are using.
What size does 1,500 × 2,000 pixels print at 300 DPI?
5 × 6.6667 inches, which is 12.7 × 16.933 cm. 300 DPI is the standard for photo and magazine printing.
What is 1,500 × 2,000 pixels in centimetres?
39.688 × 52.917 cm at 96 PPI, or 12.7 × 16.933 cm at 300 DPI.
Should these pixels be printed at 300 DPI?
Yes, if the print is held or read close up. At 300 DPI they cover 5 × 6.6667 inches, which is what that standard is for. At 150 DPI the same pixels stretch to 10 × 13.333 inches and the softening shows in the hand.
Is 1,500 × 2,000 a 3:4 ratio?
Yes. That is 3:4, which is not a standard print shape: the closest is a Letter page, and fitting it means losing about 3% along the long edge.
How close is 1,500 × 2,000 pixels at 300 DPI to a 5 × 7 print?
a 5 × 7 print is 5 × 7 inches, so this is the same width and 0.33 in shorter. It fits inside with that much margin, so no scaling is needed.
