The km/h to mph formula

One kilometer per hour is about 0.621371 mph, so multiply km/h by 0.621371 (or divide by 1.609344): mph = km/h × 0.621371. For example, 100 km/h × 0.621371 = 62.1 mph. Multiplying by 0.6 in your head gets you close enough for road signs.

Speed limits at a glance

50 km/h (a typical town limit) is 31 mph, 80 km/h is 50 mph, 100 km/h is 62 mph and a 130 km/h motorway limit is 81 mph. Wind speeds convert the same way: a 75 km/h gale is a 47 mph one.
