Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to kilometers per hour is 1.8519999999969, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.8519999999969 kilometers per hour:

1 kt = 1.8519999999969 km/h

To convert 680 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 680 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.8519999999969 km/h

680 kt → V_(km/h)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:

V_(km/h) = 680 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h

V_(km/h) = 1259.3599999979 km/h

The final result is:

680 kt → 1259.3599999979 km/h

We conclude that 680 knots is equivalent to 1259.3599999979 kilometers per hour:

680 knots = 1259.3599999979 kilometers per hour

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.00079405412273033 × 680 knots.

Another way is saying that 680 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00079405412273033 kilometers per hour.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that six hundred eighty knots is approximately one thousand two hundred fifty-nine point three six kilometers per hour:

680 kt ≅ 1259.36 km/h

An alternative is also that one kilometer per hour is approximately zero point zero zero one times six hundred eighty knots.
