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 397 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 397 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

397 km/h → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 397 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 214.36285097228 kt

The final result is:

397 km/h → 214.36285097228 kt

We conclude that 397 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 214.36285097228 knots:

397 kilometers per hour = 214.36285097228 knots

Alternative conversion
