This is what I found by googling:

DisplayNinja:

Image Quality
The LG 38WK95C-W features UWQHD+ screen resolution with 3840×1600 pixels; on its 37.5″ viewable screen, that results in a pixel-per-inch ratio of 110.93 PPI.

That’s roughly the same pixel density as 3440×1440 on 34″ and 2560×1440 on 27″ which is considered as the sweet spot. Basically, you get plenty of screen space while details are sharp and vivid. What’s more, you don’t have to apply any scaling.
 
That's about half of PPI of Mac retina screens.
Would a ppi of 110 be normal for non
-4k and non-retina Window laptops?

I found another monitor: PS341WU
What would be the ppi for this one?
I tried googling but couldn't find the ppi.
This monitor was found listed here: https://www.techradar.com/best/best-5k-and-8k-monitors

You can calculate the PPI for any monitor/tv as long as you know the width in pixels, the hight in pixels and the diagonal (in inches or cm).

Here a link to calculate it for you (and also with an explanation of the formula):
