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 3716 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3716 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

3716 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3716 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 6271.9014289826 ft/s

The final result is:

3716 kt → 6271.9014289826 ft/s

We conclude that 3716 knots is equivalent to 6271.9014289826 feet per second:

3716 knots = 6271.9014289826 feet per second

Alternative conversion
