Explanation
miles per hour and knots are units of speed. Miles per hour are used in the United States and the United Kingdom for road speeds. Knots are commonly used for maritime and aviation speeds. They are defined at different scales, so the factor is not 1: 1 miles per hour = 0.8689762419 knots, and 1 knots = 1.150779448 miles per hour. Because one knots represents a larger amount than one miles per hour, the numeric value gets smaller in this direction.

- Enter the value in miles per hour (mph).
- Multiply it by 0.8689762419.
- The result is the equivalent value in knots (kn).
