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 766 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 766 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

766 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 766 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1292.8623505384 ft/s

The final result is:

766 kt → 1292.8623505384 ft/s

We conclude that 766 knots is equivalent to 1292.8623505384 feet per second:
