Comparing map distance to real distance we get 2cm/4km. That means 1cm = 2km.

So the map distance is half the real distance (well, technically not as one is in cm and the other in km but it’s enough to think this way) and a real distance of 10km must mean a map distance of half that (again ignoring the units) so we get 5cm.
