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 760 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 760 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

760 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 760 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1282.7354913958 ft/s

The final result is:

760 kt → 1282.7354913958 ft/s

We conclude that 760 knots is equivalent to 1282.7354913958 feet per second:

760 knots = 1282.7354913958 feet per second

Alternative conversion
