Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to kilometers per hour is 1.8519999999969, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.8519999999969 kilometers per hour:
1 kt = 1.8519999999969 km/h
To convert 18 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 18 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.8519999999969 km/h
18 kt → V(km/h)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:
V(km/h) = 18 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h
V(km/h) = 33.335999999945 km/h
The final result is:
18 kt → 33.335999999945 km/h
We conclude that 18 knots is equivalent to 33.335999999945 kilometers per hour:
18 knots = 33.335999999945 kilometers per hour
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.029997600192035 × 18 knots.
Another way is saying that 18 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.029997600192035 kilometers per hour.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eighteen knots is approximately thirty-three point three three six kilometers per hour:
18 kt ≅ 33.336 km/h
An alternative is also that one kilometer per hour is approximately zero point zero three times eighteen knots.
