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 891 knots into feet per second we have to multiply 891 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

891 kt → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 891 kt × 1.6878098570997 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1503.8385826759 ft/s

The final result is:

891 kt → 1503.8385826759 ft/s

We conclude that 891 knots is equivalent to 1503.8385826759 feet per second:
