Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 228 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 228 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

228 ft/s → V_(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V_(kt) = 228 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 135.08630669558 kt

The final result is:

228 ft/s → 135.08630669558 kt

We conclude that 228 feet per second is equivalent to 135.08630669558 knots:

228 feet per second = 135.08630669558 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.007402674811841 × 228 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 228 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.007402674811841 knots.

Approximate result

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

228 ft/s ≅ 135.086 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero seven times two hundred twenty-eight feet per second.
