Conversion formula
The conversion factor from knots to miles per hour is 1.1507794480225, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.1507794480225 miles per hour:
1 kt = 1.1507794480225 mph
To convert 1.6 knots into miles per hour we have to multiply 1.6 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to miles per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 kt → 1.1507794480225 mph
1.6 kt → V(mph)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in miles per hour:
V(mph) = 1.6 kt × 1.1507794480225 mph
V(mph) = 1.8412471168361 mph
The final result is:
1.6 kt → 1.8412471168361 mph
We conclude that 1.6 knots is equivalent to 1.8412471168361 miles per hour:
1.6 knots = 1.8412471168361 miles per hour
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 mile per hour is equal to 0.54311015118837 × 1.6 knots.
Another way is saying that 1.6 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.54311015118837 miles per hour.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one point six knots is approximately one point eight four one miles per hour:
1.6 kt ≅ 1.841 mph
An alternative is also that one mile per hour is approximately zero point five four three times one point six knots.
