It's not a sentence. It's a fraction.
The fraction used in an actual sentence: "If the gaming industry multiplies by five times the expense they put into game development, wouldn't that be something?" Source: http://www.gamespot.com/news/battlefield-3-could-have-50-million-marketing-budget-analyst-6323532
Spanish Example: Los políticos españoles aseguran que no hay alternativa a los recortes educativos. Pero los 22.000 millones que cuestan las diputaciones, de las que nadie ha sabido explicar su utilidad más allá de la colocación de políticos afines, suponen cinco veces el gasto educativo de la Comunidad de Madrid.

I wrote '5 times as expensive' and thought it was strange it wasn't accepted; your explanation makes sense though.

if the tooltip shows "spend", and "spend" is used in the translation, it shall be correct and not reported incorrect.
