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 24.2 knots into miles per hour we have to multiply 24.2 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
24.2 kt → V(mph)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in miles per hour:
V(mph) = 24.2 kt × 1.1507794480225 mph
V(mph) = 27.848862642146 mph
The final result is:
24.2 kt → 27.848862642146 mph
We conclude that 24.2 knots is equivalent to 27.848862642146 miles per hour:
