A is X times more likely to happen than B.


I am really confused about parallelism.what is rule we need to follow.

All the sentences look fine to me. You must look for the placement of the helping verbs.

[aaloyko]

A is X times more likely to happen than is B: inversion in the standard structure AS X THAN Y = unnecessary complication

A is X times more likely to happen than B is: compare "A is" and "B is" = correct

A is X times more likely to happen than B: compare "A is" and "B" = not parallel

all three are correct. don't try to break them if they work.. :)
