What is 64 times greater than 22?

64 times greater than 22 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 1408 (since 64 x 22 = 1408). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

1408 is greater than 64 x 22.

But that is not true. 1408 is not greater than 64 x 22. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=64 and b=22 to get this answer:

(64 + 1) x 22 = 1430

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 65 times 22?" 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 64 times greater than 22, they mean 64 times as much as 22 which equals 1408. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
