Is it true or false that a map that has a scale of 1250000 is showing 2500000 of the same area in the rel world?
Not true for several reasons. Assuming the map scale is 1:250000, that means the the map is showing distances as one 250000th of the real distance, not 2500000. Furthermore, the given scale applies to distance. For area the appropriate factor is (250000)2 so 62500000000th of the real area.
