What is 67 times greater than 80?

67 times greater than 80 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 5360 (since 67 x 80 = 5360). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

5360 is greater than 67 x 80.

But that is not true. 5360 is not greater than 67 x 80. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=67 and b=80 to get this answer:

(67 + 1) x 80 = 5440

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 68 times 80?" 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 67 times greater than 80, they mean 67 times as much as 80 which equals 5360. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
