The conversion factor from knots to miles per hour is 1.1507794480225, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.1507794480225 miles per hour:

1 kt = 1.1507794480225 mph

To convert 2500 knots into miles per hour we have to multiply 2500 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to miles per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.1507794480225 mph

2500 kt → V_(mph)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in miles per hour:

V_(mph) = 2500 kt × 1.1507794480225 mph

V_(mph) = 2876.9486200564 mph

The final result is:

2500 kt → 2876.9486200564 mph

We conclude that 2500 knots is equivalent to 2876.9486200564 miles per hour:
