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 689 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 689 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

689 kt → V_(km/h)

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

V_(km/h) = 689 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h

V_(km/h) = 1276.0279999979 km/h

The final result is:

689 kt → 1276.0279999979 km/h

We conclude that 689 knots is equivalent to 1276.0279999979 kilometers per hour:

689 knots = 1276.0279999979 kilometers per hour

Alternative conversion
