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 488.9 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 488.9 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
488.9 km/h → V(kt)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:
V(kt) = 488.9 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt
V(kt) = 263.98488120994 kt
The final result is:
488.9 km/h → 263.98488120994 kt
We conclude that 488.9 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 263.98488120994 knots:
488.9 kilometers per hour = 263.98488120994 knots
