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 246.6 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 246.6 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

246.6 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 246.6 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 146.10650539969 kt

The final result is:

246.6 ft/s → 146.10650539969 kt

We conclude that 246.6 feet per second is equivalent to 146.10650539969 knots:

246.6 feet per second = 146.10650539969 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0068443222104612 × 246.6 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 246.6 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0068443222104612 knots.

Approximate result

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

246.6 ft/s ≅ 146.107 kt

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