320 × 240 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 | 4.4444 × 3.3333 | 11.289 × 8.4667 |
| 96 PPI | 3.3333 × 2.5 | 8.4667 × 6.35 |
| 150 PPI | 2.1333 × 1.6 | 5.4187 × 4.064 |
| 300 PPI | 1.0667 × 0.8 | 2.7093 × 2.032 |
| 600 PPI | 0.5333 × 0.4 | 1.3547 × 1.016 |
How the conversion works
Inches are found by dividing the pixel count by the pixel density: inches = pixels ÷ PPI. For 320 × 240 pixels at 96 PPI that is 320 ÷ 96 = 3.3333 and 240 ÷ 96 = 2.5.
320 × 240 is QVGA, a quarter of VGA.
Printed at 300 DPI it covers 1.0667 × 0.8 inches; on a 96 PPI screen the same pixels span 3.3333 × 2.5 inches.
That is 0.08 megapixels in total, in 4:3 proportion. In metric the 300 DPI print measures 2.7093 × 2.032 cm.
Frequently asked questions
How many inches is 320 × 240 pixels (QVGA)?
3.3333 × 2.5 inches at 96 PPI, 2.1333 × 1.6 inches at 150 DPI and 1.0667 × 0.8 inches at 300 DPI. Divide the pixels by the density you are using.
What size does 320 × 240 pixels print at 300 DPI?
1.0667 × 0.8 inches, which is 2.7093 × 2.032 cm. 300 DPI is the standard for photo and magazine printing.
What is 320 × 240 pixels in centimetres?
8.4667 × 6.35 cm at 96 PPI, or 2.7093 × 2.032 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 1.0667 × 0.8 inches, which is what that standard is for. At 150 DPI the same pixels stretch to 2.1333 × 1.6 inches and the softening shows in the hand.
Is 320 × 240 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.
What is the largest standard print 320 × 240 pixels will make at 300 DPI?
None of the common sizes — at 300 DPI it covers only 1.0667 × 0.8 inches, smaller than a 4 × 6. At 150 DPI it reaches 2.1333 × 1.6.
