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 8426 kilometers per hour into knots we have to multiply 8426 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

8426 km/h → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 8426 km/h × 0.53995680345662 kt

V_(kt) = 4549.6760259255 kt

The final result is:

8426 km/h → 4549.6760259255 kt

We conclude that 8426 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 4549.6760259255 knots:

8426 kilometers per hour = 4549.6760259255 knots

Alternative conversion
