Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to feet per second is 1.6878098570997, which means that 1 knot is equal to 1.6878098570997 feet per second:

1 kt = 1.6878098570997 ft/s

To convert 164 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 164 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 1.6878098570997 ft/s

164 kt → V_(ft/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:

V_(ft/s) = 164 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 276.80081656436 ft/s

The final result is:

164 kt → 276.80081656436 ft/s

We conclude that 164 knots is equivalent to 276.80081656436 feet per second:

164 knots = 276.80081656436 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0036127061054659 × 164 knots.

Another way is saying that 164 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0036127061054659 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred sixty-four knots is approximately two hundred seventy-six point eight zero one feet per second:

164 kt ≅ 276.801 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero four times one hundred sixty-four knots.
