Calculation process of conversion value

1 kilometre per hour = (exactly) `((1000/3600)) / ((1852/3600))` = 0.53995680345572 knot
1 knot = (exactly) `((1852/3600)) / ((1000/3600))` = 1.852 kilometre per hour
? kilometre per hour × `((1000/3600) ("m/s"/"kilometre per hour")) / ((1852/3600) ("m/s"/"knot"))` = ? knot
