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 32 miles per hour into knots we have to multiply 32 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

32 mph → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 32 mph × 0.8689762419014 kt

V_(kt) = 27.807239740845 kt

The final result is:

32 mph → 27.807239740845 kt

We conclude that 32 miles per hour is equivalent to 27.807239740845 knots:

32 miles per hour = 27.807239740845 knots
