What is 92 times greater than 77?

92 times greater than 77 seems easy enough, but is it?

Let's assume the answer = 7084 (since 92 x 77 = 7084). Then shouldn't this statement be true?:

7084 is greater than 92 x 77.

But that is not true. 7084 is not greater than 92 x 77. It is the same!

To make it greater, we could make make a formula like (a+1)b where a=92 and b=77 to get this answer:

(92 + 1) x 77 = 7161

But if that is the case, why not simply say "What is 93 times 77?" 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 92 times greater than 77, they mean 92 times as much as 77 which equals 7084. We recommend that you ask them to clarify what they mean.
