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 508 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 508 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

508 km/h → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 508 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 274.29805615596 kt

The final result is:

508 km/h → 274.29805615596 kt

We conclude that 508 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 274.29805615596 knots:

508 kilometers per hour = 274.29805615596 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0036456692913325 × 508 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 508 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0036456692913325 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred eight kilometers per hour is approximately two hundred seventy-four point two nine eight knots:

508 km/h ≅ 274.298 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times five hundred eight kilometers per hour.
