How to perform key conversions involving length measurements

The formulas for conversion are represented below:

Kilometers to Nautical Miles Formula

nmi = km / 1.852


Example: 30 Kilometers in Nautical Miles:

nmi = km / 1,852

nmi = 30 / 1,852

nmi = 16,1987



Nautical Miles to Kilometers Formula

km = nmi * 1,852


Example: 150 Kilometers in Kilometers:

km = nmi * 1,852

km = 150 * 1,852

km = 277,8



Frequently asked questions involving length and distance

2 km to nautical miles

Considering that 1 kilometer equals 0.5399568035 nautical miles, you can use a rule of three to get that 2 km equals 1.0799136070 nautical miles.

  1 km - 0,5399568035 nmi

2 km - x

Apply the rule of three and get:

x km = 1,0799136070kmnmi

x = 1,0799136070 nmi



100 nautical miles equals how many kilometers?

If there are 1.852 kilometers for every 1 nautical mile, just multiply the number of nautical miles (100) by 1.852, so you will get that 100 nautical miles equals 185.2 km. Observe the calculation below:

km = nmi * 1,852

Km = 100 * 1,852

km = 185,2
