Tips & common mistakes

Quick tips

  • 1 mile โ‰ˆ 1.6 km. Mental trick: add 60% to the mile figure.
  • A running mile in 4 minutes is an elite pace; a recreational runner covers it in 8โ€“10 minutes.
  • US cars show mph only. Check the speedometer scale before assuming the units.

Avoid these

  • Confusing statute miles (1.609 km) with nautical miles (1.852 km) โ€” a 15% gap.
  • Reading a US speedometer as km/h โ€” 70 mph is 112 km/h, not 70.
  • Using 1.5 or 1.6 for quick conversions when precision matters โ€” use 1.609 for engineering or legal documents.
