Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The voltage across each resistor within a parallel combination is the same, but the currents flowing through them are not the same, as this is determined by their resistance value and Ohm's Law. So then parallel circuits are current dividers.
The correct statement would be in a parallel combination circuit, the current flow through each resistor is not the same.
