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 55.2 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 55.2 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

55.2 km/h → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 55.2 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V(kt) = 29.805615550806 kt

The final result is:

55.2 km/h → 29.805615550806 kt

We conclude that 55.2 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 29.805615550806 knots:

55.2 kilometers per hour = 29.805615550806 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.033550724637625 × 55.2 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 55.2 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.033550724637625 knots.

Approximate result

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

55.2 km/h ≅ 29.806 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero three four times fifty-five point two kilometers per hour.
