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 877 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 877 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

877 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 877 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1480.2092446765 ft/s

The final result is:

877 kt → 1480.2092446765 ft/s

We conclude that 877 knots is equivalent to 1480.2092446765 feet per second:
