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 768 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 768 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

768 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 768 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1296.2379702526 ft/s

The final result is:

768 kt → 1296.2379702526 ft/s

We conclude that 768 knots is equivalent to 1296.2379702526 feet per second:

768 knots = 1296.2379702526 feet per second
