How do I figure out how many mega pixels a photo is?

I hate to bother you but if you have the time please answer. I have a picture that in my meta data it says 1584x3456. How do I transform this into mega pixels?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Just multiply those two numbers together. I need a calculator.1583456
Edit: well, we can’t both be right. Lol!

Multiply the two numbers and divide the result by one million (move decimal 6 places to the left). This will then be in mega pixels.

I appreciate the answers to this, but doesn't pixel size have something to do with this?

1584 X 3456 = 5,474,304 pixels.
Divide by one million = 5.47 megapixels.
Divide by one million = 5.47 megapixels.
This is correct, my earlier answer is not.

A pixel is a pixel, whether large or small.

5.47 mg right?
Now that you know the megapixel count, how does this information help? There's probably another reason / question that prompted this query about the dimensions 1584x3456. Can we help with the 'other' question?

Yes it dies. I have been ask to sell a picture but it has to be a good size. I'm guessing at least 5 or 7 mega pixel. When I looked at my Meta data it said 2.85 mg. But according to the example that I was given it equate to 5.47.

The 2.85 you see might be megabytes. Megabytes (mb) vary with content and refer to the file size, same as any computer file (how much "stuff' is in it, so to speak). Megapixels refer to width and height.
