Question 1174278
.


            Solutions of  BOTH  tutors  @greenestamps and  @ewatrrr are incorrect.


            I came to bring the correct solution.



<pre>
The area of the real object is the area on the map multiplied by the SQUARE of the scale factor.


So, the area of the village is  6 * 5000^2 = 150000000 square centimeters.


1 square meter = 100^2 = 10000 square centimeters.


Therefore, the area of the village is  15000 square meters.


1 hectare is 100 meters x 100 meters = 10^4 square meters.


Therefore, the area of the village is  1.5 hectares.


Quite reasonable value.

Solved.
