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 831 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 831 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

831 ft/s → V(kt)

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

V(kt) = 831 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 492.35403887732 kt

The final result is:

831 ft/s → 492.35403887732 kt

We conclude that 831 feet per second is equivalent to 492.35403887732 knots:
