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 1583 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 1583 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

1583 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 1583 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 854.75161987183 kt

The final result is:

1583 km/h → 854.75161987183 kt

We conclude that 1583 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 854.75161987183 knots:

1583 kilometers per hour = 854.75161987183 knots

Alternative conversion
