Guys - Need your input on the below dilemma:
MGMAT SC Question
In the sentence below underline all comparison signals and all comparative or superlative forms. If the sentence is not correct, then correct the errors in the sentence.
The are about the equivalent number of gym members in the boxing class as in the aerobics class
[spoiler] Answer: The wordy phrase the equivalent number of should be replaced with as many. The phrase in the aerobics class is correct. It is short for there are in the aerobics class. For the sake of concision we can leave out the words there are.
[/spoiler]
My questions is that can
"the same number of" be used instead of the above answer
Thanks,
Amit
