What is 91 times greater than 96?

91 times greater than 96 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 8736 (since 91 x 96 = 8736). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

8736 is greater than 91 x 96.

But that is not true. 8736 is not greater than 91 x 96. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=91 and b=96 to get this answer:

(91 + 1) x 96 = 8832

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 92 times 96?" 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 96, they mean 91 times as much as 96 which equals 8736. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
