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 404 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 404 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

404 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 404 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 681.87518226829 ft/s

The final result is:

404 kt → 681.87518226829 ft/s

We conclude that 404 knots is equivalent to 681.87518226829 feet per second:

404 knots = 681.87518226829 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.0014665440626149 × 404 knots.

Another way is saying that 404 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0014665440626149 feet per second.

Approximate result

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

404 kt ≅ 681.875 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times four hundred four knots.
