Conversion formula

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 342 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 342 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

342 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 342 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 184.66522678216 kt

The final result is:

342 km/h → 184.66522678216 kt

We conclude that 342 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 184.66522678216 knots:

342 kilometers per hour = 184.66522678216 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0054152046783536 × 342 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 342 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0054152046783536 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that three hundred forty-two kilometers per hour is approximately one hundred eighty-four point six six five knots:

342 km/h ≅ 184.665 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero five times three hundred forty-two kilometers per hour.
