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 473 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 473 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

473 km/h → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 473 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 255.39956803498 kt

The final result is:

473 km/h → 255.39956803498 kt

We conclude that 473 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 255.39956803498 knots:

473 kilometers per hour = 255.39956803498 knots
