Hi Team, please can you improve my understanding and/or point me at some further info?

I have a slow-loading site and I suspect the images. I understood that WordPress converts images to a series of smaller files which can be reviewed at wp-content/uploads/2018/08 etc etc.

If I look at “Image info” on my slow-loading site it reveals Size: 1,437KB, Dimensions: 2,528px × 3,661px (scaled to 215px × 312px)
Does this mean the full-size file is being downloaded THEN scaled in the browser, or is the scaling happening within WordPress before it is sent?

Is there a way to ensure the smaller version of the image is transmitted to help the site run faster?
Thanks,
Phil.
