Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to knots is 1.9438444924423, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 1.9438444924423 knots:

1 m/s = 1.9438444924423 kt

To convert 231 meters per second into knots we have to multiply 231 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 1.9438444924423 kt

231 m/s → V_(kt)

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

V_(kt) = 231 m/s × 1.9438444924423 kt

V_(kt) = 449.02807775417 kt

The final result is:

231 m/s → 449.02807775417 kt

We conclude that 231 meters per second is equivalent to 449.02807775417 knots:

231 meters per second = 449.02807775417 knots

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 knot is equal to 0.0022270322270303 × 231 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 231 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.0022270322270303 knots.

Approximate result

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

231 m/s ≅ 449.028 kt

An alternative is also that one knot is approximately zero point zero zero two times two hundred thirty-one meters per second.
