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 2080 miles per hour into knots we have to multiply 2080 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

2080 mph → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 2080 mph × 0.8689762419014 kt

V_(kt) = 1807.4705831549 kt

The final result is:

2080 mph → 1807.4705831549 kt

We conclude that 2080 miles per hour is equivalent to 1807.4705831549 knots:
