you have to know the conversion factor (745.7 watt = 1 hp) 

hp has no dimensions other than "hp" (lower case). 

PS, there are many different types of horsepower, 745.7 watt is only one. For example, mechanical horsepower, also known as imperial horsepower, is 550 foot-pounds per second.

Answer:

watts = hp(I) × 745.699872

Explanation:

Watts to Mechanical Horsepower

The formula to calculate watts is to multiply mechanical horsepower by 745.699872, because one mechanical horsepower = 745.699872 watts.

James Watt coined the term "horsepower," which is defined as the amount of work completed in a given amount of time. It is a measure of power that compares the strength of a machine to that of a horse. It was originally used to contrast the power of draught horses with the output of steam engines. Later, additional piston engines, electric motors, turbines, and other machinery were added to the list.

Usually in connection to the engine or motor output, horsepower (HP) is a unit of measurement for power, or the rate at which work is accomplished.
