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 261.2 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 261.2 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

261.2 km/h → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 261.2 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 141.03671706287 kt

The final result is:

261.2 km/h → 141.03671706287 kt

We conclude that 261.2 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 141.03671706287 knots:

261.2 kilometers per hour = 141.03671706287 knots
