Em to Pixels Converter — Fórmula

## Em to Pixels

**Pixels = Em x Base Font Size**

### What is an Em?

In CSS, 1em equals the computed font size of the parent element. If the parent is 16px, then 1em = 16px, 1.5em = 24px, 0.875em = 14px.

### Em vs Rem

- **em** is relative to the parent element font size (cascading)
- **rem** is relative to the root element font size (consistent)

Default browser root font size is 16px.
