Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to feet per second is 0.91134441528215, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.91134441528215 feet per second:

1 km/h = 0.91134441528215 ft/s

To convert 242.7 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 242.7 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.91134441528215 ft/s

242.7 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 242.7 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 221.18328958898 ft/s

The final result is:

242.7 km/h → 221.18328958898 ft/s

We conclude that 242.7 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 221.18328958898 feet per second:

242.7 kilometers per hour = 221.18328958898 feet per second
