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 3009 miles per hour into knots we have to multiply 3009 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

3009 mph → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 3009 mph × 0.8689762419014 kt

V_(kt) = 2614.7495118813 kt

The final result is:

3009 mph → 2614.7495118813 kt

We conclude that 3009 miles per hour is equivalent to 2614.7495118813 knots:
