2,000 × 1,500 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 | 27.778 × 20.833 | 70.556 × 52.917 |
| 96 PPI | 20.833 × 15.625 | 52.917 × 39.688 |
| 150 PPI | 13.333 × 10 | 33.867 × 25.4 |
| 300 PPI | 6.6667 × 5 | 16.933 × 12.7 |
| 600 PPI | 3.3333 × 2.5 | 8.4667 × 6.35 |
How the conversion works
Inches are found by dividing the pixel count by the pixel density: inches = pixels ÷ PPI. For 2,000 × 1,500 pixels at 96 PPI that is 2,000 ÷ 96 = 20.833 and 1,500 ÷ 96 = 15.625.
Printed at 300 DPI it covers 6.6667 × 5 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 20.833 × 15.625 inches.
That is 3 megapixels in total, in 4:3 proportion. In metric the 300 DPI print measures 16.933 × 12.7 cm.
Frequently asked questions
How many inches is 2,000 × 1,500 pixels?
20.833 × 15.625 inches at 96 PPI, 13.333 × 10 inches at 150 DPI and 6.6667 × 5 inches at 300 DPI. Divide the pixels by the density you are using.
What size does 2,000 × 1,500 pixels print at 300 DPI?
6.6667 × 5 inches, which is 16.933 × 12.7 cm. 300 DPI is the standard for photo and magazine printing.
What is 2,000 × 1,500 pixels in centimetres?
52.917 × 39.688 cm at 96 PPI, or 16.933 × 12.7 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 6.6667 × 5 inches, which is what that standard is for. At 150 DPI the same pixels stretch to 13.333 × 10 inches and the softening shows in the hand.
Is 2,000 × 1,500 a 4:3 ratio?
Yes. That is 4:3, 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 2,000 × 1,500 pixels at 300 DPI to a 5 × 7 print?
a 5 × 7 print is 7 × 5 inches, so this is 0.33 in narrower and the same height. It fits inside with that much margin, so no scaling is needed.
