The statement says that Gabriela did 94 jumping jacks in the evening and Ashley did 13 jumping jacks in the morning and then the questions is that how many fewer jumping jacks did Ashley do than Gabriela?

From the statement it is clear that it is the Gabriela that did more jumping jacks than Ashley so I think the question is wrong the way it is asked. Am I right or wrong please tell me. Because it should ask how many jumping jacks did Gabriela did more than Ashley.

Thanks
