How i got it?

We can use our scale 3:10 and the actual distance of 25 km to find the number of centimeters.

If the kilometers are 2.5  times as long, then we also need to multiply the centimeters by 2.5

3 x 2.5 = 7.5

The number of centimeters on the map that represents an actual distance of 25 kilometers is 7.5, centimeters.
