Answer:

20 cm = 0.2 m

10 cm = 0.1 m

5 cm = 0.05 m

1 km = 1000 m

5 m = 5 m

50 cm = 0.5 m

The volume of each brick is:

V_brick = 0.2 m x 0.1 m x 0.05 m = 0.001 m^3

The volume of the wall is:

V_wall = 1000 m x 5 m x 0.5 m = 2500 m^3

The number of bricks required is:

N_bricks = V_wall / V_brick = 2500 m^3 / 0.001 m^3 = 2,500,000

Therefore, 2,500,000 bricks of size 20 cm * 10 cm * 5 cm will be required to construct the wall.
