Conversion formula

The conversion factor from knots to meters per second is 0.514444444444, which means that 1 knot is equal to 0.514444444444 meters per second:

1 kt = 0.514444444444 m/s

To convert 229 knots into meters per second we have to multiply 229 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from knots to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 kt → 0.514444444444 m/s

229 kt → V(m/s)

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

V(m/s) = 229 kt × 0.514444444444 m/s

V(m/s) = 117.80777777768 m/s

The final result is:

229 kt → 117.80777777768 m/s

We conclude that 229 knots is equivalent to 117.80777777768 meters per second:

229 knots = 117.80777777768 meters per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter per second is equal to 0.0084884038971279 × 229 knots.

Another way is saying that 229 knots is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0084884038971279 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred twenty-nine knots is approximately one hundred seventeen point eight zero eight meters per second:

229 kt ≅ 117.808 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero eight times two hundred twenty-nine knots.
