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 855 knots into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 855 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
855 kt → V(km/h)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:
V(km/h) = 855 kt × 1.8519999999969 km/h
V(km/h) = 1583.4599999974 km/h
The final result is:
855 kt → 1583.4599999974 km/h
We conclude that 855 knots is equivalent to 1583.4599999974 kilometers per hour:
855 knots = 1583.4599999974 kilometers per hour
Alternative conversion
