A 'Knot' is the speed of a ship at sea, in 'Nautical miles per hour'.

A Nautical mile is longer than a land mile.

A Nautical mile is one sixtieth of a degree. of curvature of the Earth's surface.

NB Land miles are measured in 'Miles per Hour (MPH)'.

You can't convert a knots to miles: a knot is a unit of speed, not of length. One knot is exactly 1.852 km/hour, and approximately 1.151 miles/hour.
