How the conversion works
Inches are found by dividing the pixel count by the pixel density: inches = pixels ÷ PPI. For 2,560 × 1,440 pixels at 96 PPI that is 2,560 ÷ 96 = 26.667 and 1,440 ÷ 96 = 15.
2,560 × 1,440 is QHD.
Printed at 300 DPI it covers 8.5333 × 4.8 inches; on a 96 PPI screen the same pixels span 26.667 × 15 inches.
That is 3.69 megapixels in total, in 16:9 proportion. In metric the 300 DPI print measures 21.675 × 12.192 cm.
