What is 46 times greater than 94?

46 times greater than 94 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 4324 (since 46 x 94 = 4324). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

4324 is greater than 46 x 94.

But that is not true. 4324 is not greater than 46 x 94. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=46 and b=94 to get this answer:

(46 + 1) x 94 = 4418

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 47 times 94?" 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 46 times greater than 94, they mean 46 times as much as 94 which equals 4324. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
