Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Since, a set is called the subset of a set if that set contains all the element of the set.

That is, B is called subset of a set A,

If Set A contains all the element of B,

Since, the element of set {3} is 3,

And, the elements of set {1,2,4,5,6} are 1,2,4,5,6

Thus, 3 is not contained by set {1,2,4,5,6}

Hence, {3} is not a subset of set {1,2,4,5,6}

Given statement is FALSE.
