Answer:

1.61 x km= y miles  

x km= y/ 1.61 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance in Kilometers  and y represent the distance in miles then

1.61 x km= y miles

Now if we have 5 miles then

1.61(5) km = 5miles

8.05 km = 5 miles

Similarly if we want to express 1 km in miles the equation would be

x km= y/ 1.61 miles

So for 5 km the miles would be

5 km = 5/1.61 miles

5 km = 3.1055 miles
