So am confused...is percentage higher than pixels? And why is height 100px and width 90px then the total is 100px..

Question

Div{ border:5px solid green
Width:90px
Height100px
How is the total width and height 100px??

Answer 1

Did you apply this somewhere. Both are higher to each other. It's depends on how you are using. Actually pixels is fixed size means it will not adjust with different screen size and percentage is variable type means if you define 80% so it will automatically resize your div and adjust with different screen size means it will not overflow the boundaries.

In simple terms pixels takes reserved space.

Here why total will come in picture. We never check total in CSS. So don't be confused.

Answer 2

Are you understanding that CSS is math? Why you are adding them. What is your actual problem.
