"The first of the new type 055 guided-missile destroyers, which has a displacement of more than 10,000 tons ..."

"The new destroyer will be similar in size to the 8,000-10,000 tonne Arleigh Burke class destroyers ..."

Okay, is it more than 10,000 or between 8000 and 10,000? Must be Common Core math ...
