Nested inside a tag giving different font size

Question

Applying an enlarged font-size using em directly to a

tag and to the nested tag are giving different results.

Answer 1

"The em unit is a relative unit based on the computed value of the font size of the parent element. This means that child elements are always dependent on their parent to set their font-size."

Reference: CSS-Tricks

Your

tag has already 1,4 of normal size and is 1,7 of its parent (which is already enlarged).
