What is 91 times greater than 27?

91 times greater than 27 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 2457 (since 91 x 27 = 2457). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

2457 is greater than 91 x 27.

But that is not true. 2457 is not greater than 91 x 27. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=91 and b=27 to get this answer:

(91 + 1) x 27 = 2484

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 92 times 27?" 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 91 times greater than 27, they mean 91 times as much as 27 which equals 2457. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
