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 708.6 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 708.6 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

708.6 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 708.6 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 419.83402159863 kt

The final result is:

708.6 ft/s → 419.83402159863 kt

We conclude that 708.6 feet per second is equivalent to 419.83402159863 knots:

708.6 feet per second = 419.83402159863 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0023818936735813 × 708.6 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 708.6 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0023818936735813 knots.

Approximate result

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

708.6 ft/s ≅ 419.834 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times seven hundred eight point six feet per second.
