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 426 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 426 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

426 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 426 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 230.02159827252 kt

The final result is:

426 km/h → 230.02159827252 kt

We conclude that 426 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 230.02159827252 knots:

426 kilometers per hour = 230.02159827252 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0043474178403684 × 426 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 426 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0043474178403684 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four hundred twenty-six kilometers per hour is approximately two hundred thirty point zero two two knots:

426 km/h ≅ 230.022 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times four hundred twenty-six kilometers per hour.
