In A, a population equal to Kansas makes no sense: a POPULATION cannot be equal to a PLACE.
Eliminate A.

In C, Kansas's population in one three-hundredth of its area implies that KANSAS'S population lives in one threehundredth of either KANSAS'S area or SINGAPORE's area.
Neither is the intended meaning.
The intended meaning here is that SINGAPORE'S population lives in an AREA ONE THREE-HUNDREDTH THE SIZE OF KANSAS.
Eliminate C.

In D, Singapore has the SAME population as Kansas implies that Singapore is populated by the SAME people who live in Kansas.
Not the intended meaning.
Eliminate D.

In E, Singapore is densely populated...with Kansas's population implies that Kansas's population lives in SINGAPORE.
Not the intended meaning.

The correct answer is B.
