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 247.5 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 247.5 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
247.5 kt → V(ft/s)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in feet per second:
V(ft/s) = 247.5 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s
V(ft/s) = 417.73293963218 ft/s
The final result is:
247.5 kt → 417.73293963218 ft/s
We conclude that 247.5 knots is equivalent to 417.73293963218 feet per second:
247.5 knots = 417.73293963218 feet per second
