#y=1.609344x#

The relation between miles and kilometres is given by

#1" kilometre"=0.621371" miles"#

or #1" mile"=1.609344" kilometres"#

Observe that #1/0.621371=1.609344#

Hence #x" miles"=x xx1.609344" kilometres"#

and relation is #y=1.609344x#

You can also write it reverse way i.e. #x=0.621371y#, as well.
