I've set the parent as a table and children as table cells and vertically aligned to the bottom. Yet still it's showing larger font as it would be aligned to the middle
The html
<div class="table">
<div class="tablecell tablecell1">7.1</div>
<div class="tablecell tablecell2">Inches</div>
</div>
CSS
.table {width:200px; display:table;}
.tablecell {display:table-cell; vertical-align:bottom;}
.tablecell1 {font-size:40px;}
.tablecell2 {padding-left:15px; font-size:20px;}
and jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/12qmna8y/

Use vertical-align: baseline
instead or you could completely remove the vertical-align
property, since the default value of vertical-align
is baseline
.
vertical-align: text-bottom
will also work.
.table {
width: 200px;
display: table;
}
.tablecell {
display: table-cell;
}
.tablecell1 {
font-size: 40px;
}
.tablecell2 {
padding-left: 15px;
font-size: 20px;
}
<div class="table">
<div class="tablecell tablecell1">7.1</div>
<div class="tablecell tablecell2">Inches</div>
</div>
