what is a triple number? a number with three digits? something else? makes no sense in english
Makes no sense in Greek either... A three-digit number is called τριψήφιος.
It doesn't matter. One can imagine an ad-hoc use of the term for whatever purpose. We're practicing Greek here, not writing academic definitions.

Sorry, but I do not agree. I can't imagine any ad-use of this sentence, but I can imagine (other) practical use of the words τριπλός and αριθμός....and I would prefer sentences with practical application as it is luckily the case in most of the exercises
I have to say I agree, solidgitarius. I'm constantly amazed at the number of people who get worked up over this or that phrase. Even if the phrase is questionable, generated by an algorithm, there is a lot to learn: spelling, gender, number, etc. Hardly worth 17 comments complaining.
Aha, and I thought I didn't understand because I am not a native speaker in english ;-) That makes it more difficult to learn the exact meaning of some words! So yes, for me it is important that both engelish and greek sentences makes sense!
Yes, because I don't know what a triple number is. Triple digit--I know what that is.
Can it be like a number represents the triple of another? For instance 12 is the triple of 4. Twelve is the triple (number) of four. Something that in English (correct me if I'm wrong, since I'm not a native speaker) is translated only as the triple.
