        <p>There is thus a 4:3 scaling factor between each density, so a 9x9 bitmap

         in ldpi is 12x12 in mdpi and 16x16 in hdpi.</p>

        <p>There is thus a 3:4:6 scaling ratio between the three densities, so a 9x9 bitmap

         in ldpi is 12x12 in mdpi and 18x18 in hdpi.</p>

        <p>When Android selects which resource files to use,

         it handles screen density differently than the other qualifiers.

selects the option that most closely matches the device, and the selection process is complete.

Android selects the option that most closely matches the device screen density.

In general, Android prefers scaling down a larger original image to scaling up a smaller

original image. See <a href="{@docRoot}guide/practices/screens_support.html">Supporting Multiple
