Mac is recognizing my 27" 1440p monitors as 41"

I have 2 external monitors connected to my macbook pro 2016 with Monterey latest version. Those monitors are 27", with a 1440p resolution with 60hz, but the mac is recognizing them as 41" 1440p 60hz. How to fix it?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.6

Difficulty getting 3 monitors recognized by m2 Mac mini pro. I don't have any monitors with a resolution greater than 4k. I don't have anything set to higher than 60hz. I have two monitors plugged in via thunderbolt to hdmi, and one hdmi to hdmi. If I unplug any 1, the Mac recognizes both of the others. When I have all 3 plugged in, the Mac only recognizes 2.

MacBook Air M2 2022 fails to detect dual portable monitor screens I have a dual portable monitor, ACER PD163Q. Unfortunately, my Macbook doesn't seem to be detecting the 2 screens available. There's supposedly a driver that should help with this but my macbook doesn't auto download it either. Now, both screens on my dual portable monitor are showing the same thing :( [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Your Mac does not know or care about the physical size of your display, ONLY about its resolution.

What do you want it to do differently?
