What does the underlined phrase mean in the following sentence? Der Mann ist älter als neunundzwanzig.

The German number “neunundzwanzig” means “twenty-nine”: “neun” is nine, and “zwanzig” is twenty. So “Der Mann ist älter als neunundzwanzig” means “The man is older than twenty-nine,” making 29 the correct choice.
