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 8.8 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 8.8 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
8.8 kt → V(km/h)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:
V(km/h) = 8.8 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h
V(km/h) = 16.297599999973 km/h
The final result is:
8.8 kt → 16.297599999973 km/h
We conclude that 8.8 knots is equivalent to 16.297599999973 kilometers per hour:
8.8 knots = 16.297599999973 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 0.061358727665525 × 8.8 knots.
Another way is saying that 8.8 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.061358727665525 kilometers per hour.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that eight point eight knots is approximately sixteen point two nine eight kilometers per hour:
8.8 kt ≅ 16.298 km/h
An alternative is also that one kilometer per hour is approximately zero point zero six one times eight point eight knots.
