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 3718 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 3718 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

3718 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 3718 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 6275.2770486968 ft/s

The final result is:

3718 kt → 6275.2770486968 ft/s

We conclude that 3718 knots is equivalent to 6275.2770486968 feet per second:
