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 788 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 788 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

788 ft/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 788 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V_(kt) = 466.87723542157 kt

The final result is:

788 ft/s → 466.87723542157 kt

We conclude that 788 feet per second is equivalent to 466.87723542157 knots:

788 feet per second = 466.87723542157 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0021418906815987 × 788 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 788 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0021418906815987 knots.

Approximate result

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

788 ft/s ≅ 466.877 kt

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