Conversion formula

The conversion factor from miles per hour to knots is 0.8689762419014, which means that 1 mile per hour is equal to 0.8689762419014 knots:

1 mph = 0.8689762419014 kt

To convert 2005 miles per hour into knots we have to multiply 2005 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from miles per hour to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mph → 0.8689762419014 kt

2005 mph → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2005 mph × 0.8689762419014 kt

V_(kt) = 1742.2973650123 kt

The final result is:

2005 mph → 1742.2973650123 kt

We conclude that 2005 miles per hour is equivalent to 1742.2973650123 knots:

2005 miles per hour = 1742.2973650123 knots
