Chad Nielsen · Answer 1

Since the plane is flying 300 knots per hour.

Mareli Sanchez · Answer 2

1.15 (300).

Substitute k for 300, since the plane is flying 300 knots per hour, and k=knots per hour.

1.15 (300) = 345 miles per hour

After multiplying, 300 by 1.15, you get 345 miles per hour. This is the speed of the plane from Knots to MPH (Miles Per Hour).
