Feet to Miles Formula
Feet to Miles
To convert feet per second to miles per hour, multiply the speed value by 0.681818. This comes from dividing by 1.46667 (the mph to ft/s factor) or directly calculating (3,600 seconds per hour) ÷ (5,280 feet per mile) = 0.681818.
mph = ft/s × 0.681818
Example:
Input: 88 ft/s
Calculation: 88 ft/s × 0.681818 = 60 mph
Result: 60 mph
