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 68.9 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 68.9 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

68.9 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 68.9 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 40.822133909323 kt

The final result is:

68.9 ft/s → 40.822133909323 kt

We conclude that 68.9 feet per second is equivalent to 40.822133909323 knots:

68.9 feet per second = 40.822133909323 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.024496514616832 × 68.9 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 68.9 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.024496514616832 knots.

Approximate result

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

68.9 ft/s ≅ 40.822 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero two four times sixty-eight point nine feet per second.
