  • Inline Style

    <html style="font-size: 18px;">
  • Internal Stylesheet

    <style>
    html {
        font-size: 18px;
    }
    </style>
  • External Stylesheet

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">

  • PX to REM Conversion Formula

    REM = PX / Base Font Size
  • Example Calculation

    If the root font-size is 18px, and you need to convert 36px into REM:

    REM = 36px / 18px
    REM = 2

    So, 36px is equal to 2rem when the root font-size is 18px.
