Formule

## 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.
