Note: 1 inch = 2.54 cm is an exact converion, while 1 mile=1.6km is only approximate.

Using conversion
1 inch=2.54 cm
1 mile = 1760*3*12 = 63360 in = 160934.4 cm 
If 1 inch = 1 mile, then 
2.54 cm : 1 mile = 1.609344 km
1 cm : 0.6336 km   (exactly), or
1 cm : 0.6 km (approximately)

Using both conversions:
1 inch = 2.54 cm : 1 mile = 1.6 km
=>
2.54 cm : 1.6 km
1 cm : 1.6/2.54=0.6299 km (approximately), or
1 cm : 0.6 km (approximately)

But to open an account with a credit union you have to be member of that fraternity or that group of people who Possesses same kind of thought. So , if you are part of that community , you can open credit union easily.Credit Union is usually not found all over the country, but due to high demand and more helpful nature of these kind of organizations for the welfare of their fraternity their demands are increasing.
