The correct answer is (b) Density of pixels on a computer screen

Explanation:

  • DPI (Dots Per Inch) is a measure of spatial printing, video, or image scanner dot density.
  • Specifically, it describes the number of individual dots that can be placed in a line within the span of 1 inch.
  • On a computer screen, it is often used interchangeably with PPI (Pixels Per Inch) to describe the resolution and clarity of the display.
  • Higher DPI means higher resolution, resulting in more detail and sharpness in the image.
  • In printing, it refers to the number of ink dots a printer puts on a paper per inch.
