I am not sure as even I had the same the doubt.

Answer 2

Solomon was not wiser than he is.

• Comparative sentences generally differentiate between two objects or persons. An adjective is used to denote the degree of comparison. For example: tall-taller-tallest.
• To convert a sentence to comparative, the degree of comparison of the adjective in the sentence must be changed. The adjective in the above given sentence is 'wise'. The next degree of 'wise' is 'wiser'. Thus, the word 'wiser' must be used without changing the meaning of the sentence.
• The sentence, " He is as wise as Solomon" is positive. The conversion of the positive sentence to comparative will be " Solomon was not wiser than he is".
