The total area is given by:
 A1 = (300) * (500)
 A1 = 150000 feet ^ 2
 The area occupied by 5 people is:
 A2 = (5) * (5)
 A2 = 25 feet ^ 2
 Then, we can make the following rule of three:
 5 --------> 25
 x --------> 150000
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (150000/25) * (5)
 x = 30000
 Answer:
 D. 30,000 people
