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 580 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 580 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

580 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 580 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 313.17494600484 kt

The final result is:

580 km/h → 313.17494600484 kt

We conclude that 580 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 313.17494600484 knots:

580 kilometers per hour = 313.17494600484 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0031931034482705 × 580 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 580 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0031931034482705 knots.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five hundred eighty kilometers per hour is approximately three hundred thirteen point one seven five knots:

580 km/h ≅ 313.175 kt

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