Essential context

Understanding speed conversions

Speed combines distance with time. Conversions must account for both parts of the unit, such as changing miles to kilometers while keeping the one-hour interval consistent.

Precision and rounding

Road displays can usually be rounded sensibly, but navigation, engineering, athletics, and scientific calculations may require additional significant digits.

A distinction that matters

A knot is exactly one nautical mile per hour. It is a speed unit, not a distance unit, and is standard in marine and aviation contexts.
