10rem to px
10rem = 160px
At the browser default root font size of 16 px. Change it and this number changes — see below.
How it is calculated
One rem is 16px, so:
10rem × 16 = 160px
Reversing it, 160px × 0.0625 returns 10rem.
10rem at other root font sizes
rem is measured against the root element, so the answer above holds only while that is 16 px. A visitor who has raised their browser's default — the accessibility setting rem exists to respect — is reading your page at one of the larger rows.
