    This problem belongs to comparing quantities.

    we have 1 cm : 5km

    we have different units in our ratio so we need to convert km as cm so we can have same units here.

    we know that

    1 km = 1000m

    5km=5000m

    100cm=1m

    5000m=500000cm

    1cm:500000cm = 1:500000 units will be cancels as we have same unit on to and bottom

    1:500000=0.000002 this is the simplified form of given ratio
