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 315 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 315 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

315 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 315 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 186.63239740837 kt

The final result is:

315 ft/s → 186.63239740837 kt

We conclude that 315 feet per second is equivalent to 186.63239740837 knots:

315 feet per second = 186.63239740837 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0053581265304754 × 315 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 315 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0053581265304754 knots.

Approximate result

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

315 ft/s ≅ 186.632 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero five times three hundred fifteen feet per second.
