1000 kw to metric hp conversion result above is displayed in three different forms: as a decimal (which could be rounded), in scientific notation (scientific form, standard index form or standard form in the United Kingdom) and as a fraction (exact result). Every display form has its own advantages and in different situations particular form is more convenient than another. For example usage of scientific notation when working with big numbers is recommended due to easier reading and comprehension. Usage of fractions is recommended when more precision is needed.
If we want to calculate how many Metric Horsepower are 1000 Kilowatts we have to multiply 1000 by 800000 and divide the product by 588399. So for 1000 we have: (1000 × 800000) ÷ 588399 = 800000000 ÷ 588399 = 1359.6216173039 Metric Horsepower
So finally 1000 kw = 1359.6216173039 metric hp
