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 749 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 749 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

749 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 749 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 443.77036717101 kt

The final result is:

749 ft/s → 443.77036717101 kt

We conclude that 749 feet per second is equivalent to 443.77036717101 knots:

749 feet per second = 443.77036717101 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0022534176997326 × 749 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 749 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0022534176997326 knots.

Approximate result

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

749 ft/s ≅ 443.77 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times seven hundred forty-nine feet per second.
