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 788 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 788 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

788 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 788 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1329.9941673946 ft/s

The final result is:

788 kt → 1329.9941673946 ft/s

We conclude that 788 knots is equivalent to 1329.9941673946 feet per second:
