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 450 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 450 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

450 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 450 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 266.61771058338 kt

The final result is:

450 ft/s → 266.61771058338 kt

We conclude that 450 feet per second is equivalent to 266.61771058338 knots:

450 feet per second = 266.61771058338 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0037506885713327 × 450 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 450 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0037506885713327 knots.

Approximate result

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

450 ft/s ≅ 266.618 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero four times four hundred fifty feet per second.
