Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to knots is 0.53995680345662, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.53995680345662 knots:

1 km/h = 0.53995680345662 kt

To convert 1477 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 1477 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.53995680345662 kt

1477 km/h → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 1477 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 797.51619870543 kt

The final result is:

1477 km/h → 797.51619870543 kt

We conclude that 1477 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 797.51619870543 knots:

1477 kilometers per hour = 797.51619870543 knots
