Since one horsepower is 745 watts, a 115 volt 1 hp motor would pull about 6.5 amperes, depending on power factor.
Note:
That may be a theoretical value. However, practically speaking, single phase A.C. motors are notoriously inefficient. That is the reason the National Electrical Code lists the full load current of a 1 HP, 115 volt motor at 16 amps. That value is considered nominal and can vary depending on motor design. That value does not begin to factor in inrush current.
The best advice is to utilize the manufacturer's motor nameplate value.

How do you calculate watts to amps?
The most basic calculation is volts multiplied by amps of a circuit for a single phase load.
How do you find out PF in single phase?
Measure the voltage, current and power. The PF is power/(volts x amps).
