Conversion number between walking speed and speed of sound [s] is 0.0040863546139215. This means, that walking speed is smaller unit than speed of sound.
Switch to reverse conversion:
from speed of sound to walking speed conversion
| walking speed |
Result in speed of sound
?If conversion between walking speed to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to speed of sound is exactly definied, high precision conversion from walking speed to speed of sound is enabled.
Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!

Definition of walking speed unit: ≈ 1.4 m/s. With average walking speed, you walk around 5 km in 1 hour. In more than one literature, the 1.4 m/s speeds are used in calculations. The link presented in the source has calculated this average walking speed from the average of 3 additional literature.
Definition of speed of sound unit: ≡ (1.4 x 286 x (20+273.15) )-2. Speed of sound in the air. But this speed varies between 295-340 m/s depending on the air temperature and pressure. From the NASA formula I calculated the speed on sea level at 20°C.
