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 718 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 718 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

718 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 718 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1211.8474773976 ft/s

The final result is:

718 kt → 1211.8474773976 ft/s

We conclude that 718 knots is equivalent to 1211.8474773976 feet per second:

718 knots = 1211.8474773976 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 0.00082518635278051 × 718 knots.

Another way is saying that 718 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00082518635278051 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that seven hundred eighteen knots is approximately one thousand two hundred eleven point eight four seven feet per second:

718 kt ≅ 1211.847 ft/s

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