Calculation process of conversion value

1 speed of light = (exactly) `(299792458) / ((1852/3600))` = 582749918.35853 knot
1 knot = (exactly) `((1852/3600)) / (299792458)` = 1.7160019564083 × 10^-9 speed of light
? speed of light × `(299792458 ("m/s"/"speed of light")) / ((1852/3600) ("m/s"/"knot"))` = ? knot

High precision conversion

If conversion between speed of light to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to knot is exactly definied, high precision conversion from speed of light to knot is enabled.
