What is 33 times greater than 32?
33 times greater than 32 seems easy enough, but is it?
Let's assume the answer = 1056 (since 33 x 32 = 1056). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:
1056 is greater than 33 x 32.
But that is not true. 1056 is not greater than 33 x 32. It is the same!
To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=33 and b=32 to get this answer:
(33 + 1) x 32 = 1088
But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 34 times 32?" instead of saying "times greater than?"
We do not think there is a correct answer, because the question can be misinterpreted.
It seems that when many people write 33 times greater than 32, they mean 33 times as much as 32 which equals 1056. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
