To make things easier, let's assume that the area X on the map is represented by a length of 6.4 cm and width of 1 cm.
Thus, 6.4*1 = 6.4
Now, let's convert those values to Km:
[6.4*5km] * [1*5km] = 6.4*5*5 = 160 km^2
160 > 150, thus option A is the correct answer.
Thus, 6.4*1 = 6.4
Now, let's convert those values to Km:
[6.4*5km] * [1*5km] = 6.4*5*5 = 160 km^2
160 > 150, thus option A is the correct answer.
