Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.5: 750 × 0.5 ≈ 375 mps, against the exact 385.833333 mps (2.8% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A knot is smaller than a meter per second, so the number of meters per second must come out smaller than the number of knots. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
