24kva × cos φ [also known as power factor) = kw.

If the actual p.f. is not known, a commonly used estimate is 0.80. Generator ratings are often based on this.

Which class you are in?

learn the basics, don't get your questions solved here (by some of the more compassionate members)

After all the conversion of KVA to KW or what is power factors are the foundations. Study well.
