Examples
1
Consider that a British naval vessel travels 100 nautical miles (UK) to reach its destination. Convert this distance from nautical miles (UK) to Kilometers.
Answer:
Given:
The length in nautical miles (uk) is:
Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 100
Formula:
The formula to convert length from nautical miles (uk) to kilometers is:
Length(Kilometers) = Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) / 0.5396118
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 100 in the above formula.
Length(Kilometers) = 100 / 0.5396118
Length(Kilometers) = 185.3184
Final Answer:
Therefore, 100 NM (UK) is equal to 185.3184 km.
The length is 185.3184 km, in kilometers.
2
Consider that a sailing regatta covers a course of 75 nautical miles (UK). Convert this distance from nautical miles (UK) to Kilometers.
Answer:
Given:
The length in nautical miles (uk) is:
Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 75
Formula:
The formula to convert length from nautical miles (uk) to kilometers is:
Length(Kilometers) = Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) / 0.5396118
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Nautical Miles (UK)) = 75 in the above formula.
Length(Kilometers) = 75 / 0.5396118
Length(Kilometers) = 138.9888
Final Answer:
Therefore, 75 NM (UK) is equal to 138.9888 km.
The length is 138.9888 km, in kilometers.

Nautical Miles (UK)
A nautical mile (UK) is a unit of length used in maritime and aviation contexts. One nautical mile is equivalent to 1,852 meters or approximately 1.15078 miles.
The nautical mile is defined based on the Earth's circumference and is equal to one minute of latitude.
Nautical miles are used worldwide for navigation at sea and in the air. They are particularly important for charting courses and distances in maritime and aviation industries, ensuring consistency and accuracy in navigation.
Kilometers
A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.
The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.
Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.
