Answer:

C.13 1/3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

On the map, 5km is represented by 1/3 cm.

Therefore:


1\operatorname{km}\text{ is represented by }(1)/(3)/5=(1)/(15)cm

We can then conclude that:


\begin{gathered} 200\operatorname{km}\text{ is represented by }(1)/(15)*200\text{ cm} \\ (1)/(15)*200=13(1)/(3)cm \end{gathered}

The correct choice is C.
