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 779 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 779 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

779 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 779 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 461.5448812099 kt

The final result is:

779 ft/s → 461.5448812099 kt

We conclude that 779 feet per second is equivalent to 461.5448812099 knots:
