What territory will the forest occupy, occupying an area of 10 cm square on the earth’s surface on a 1: 50,000 scale map?

First, it should be indicated that on a map with a scale, the ratio of which is equal to: 1: 50000, in 1 centimeter of the map there is 500 meters of the real surface.
Thus, we can conclude that on a surface with an area of 1 square centimeter, you can arrange a real area equal to:
500 * 500 = 250,000 square meters or 0.25 square kilometers, which corresponds to 25 hectares.
In this case, we get the following real forest area:
10 * 25 = 250 hectares or 2.5 square kilometers.
