FALSE...

3.2 Km is same as 3.2 * 10⁵

Answer:  The given statement is FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to check whether the following statement is true and false :

3.2 km is the same as \(3.2\times10^6~\textup{km}.\)

We know that

1 kilometer = 1000 meters  and  1 meter = 100 centimeters.

So, we get

\(3.2~\textup{km}=3.2\times1000~\textup{m}=3.2\times1000\times100~\textup{cm}=3.2\times10^5~\textup{cm}.\)

Therefore, \(3.2~\textup{km}\) is the same as \(3.2\times10^5~\textup{cm}\)

Thus, the given statement is FALSE.
