You have received a lot of precise answers. A rough rule of the thumb that give a very close answer is that 5 miles = 8 kilometers. So kilometers = 8/5 * miles or miles = 5/8 * kilometers. All you need to remember is the fraction 5/8 and that a mile is longer than a kilometer.

That should work.
OR:
