Misuse of greater than |
2019-03-07 |

Kenneth pose la question :
I have an old business mathematics textbook. The authors have indicated that the following expressions indicate multiplication:
? is 2/3 greater than 90; ? is 2/3 smaller than 90. They also indicated that the following expression would indicate division: 30 is 2/3 greater than ? and 30 is 2/3 smaller than ?.
How can these phrases indicate multiplication and division? How can 60 be 2/3 greater than 90 and also smaller than 90 as indicated above. What were the authors thinking? I have added the page from the book that indicates what I have explained in my message
