About This Conversion
Miles to kilometers is needed for US and UK road distances, speed limits and travel planning in metric countries. The factor is exact: one statute mile is 1,609.344 meters, a value that descends from the Roman mille passus by way of a sixteenth-century English statute that fixed it at 8 furlongs.
Watch for the nautical mile, which is a different unit entirely at 1,852 m, defined as one minute of latitude. Marine and aviation charts use it, so a "mile" on a nautical chart is about 15 percent longer than the one on a road sign.
