Hi All,

I got a que. in Manhattan CAT with below question stem.
'The area of the right triangle ABC is 4 times greater than the area of the right triangle KLM'

Does not this mean area of traingle ABC is 5 times the area of triangle KLM?
or I am missing something here.

I guess the text in original q stem '4 times greater than ' is wrong as per Manhattan SC guide.

Any views.
