Answer:

False

Explanation:

Given:

9 inches = 9*2.5 cm = 22.5 cm

1 m = 100 cm

Height of each mattress = 22.5 cm

Number of mattresses = 7000

Total height of the stack of mattresses = 22.5cm*7000 = 157500 cm

1 m = 100 cm

157500 cm = 157500/100=1575 m

3 times the height of the CN Tower = 3*553 m = 1659m

Therefore, the stack of mattresses is only 1575 m high, which is less than 1659 m. Hence, the company's claim is false.
