The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
A map can either be scaled up or scaled down. If the map is enlarged then it is scaled up and hence represented by n:1, where n > 1. While is the map is reduced, it is scaled down and is represented by 1 : n, where n < 1.
Since one box has a length of 1 cm by 1 cm. The distance between A and B is 4 boxes = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Hence the scale is given as 1:n, where n > 1. n is gotten from:
n = 960 m / 0.04 m = 24000
Therefore the scale is 1 : 24000
The appropriate choice appears to be ...
