A corps is two or more divisions. Frequently in the armies of both sides in WWI a corps had three divisions, but it could have more, There is no set number, just however many divisions seems best to the army commander. (A field army is two or more corps). So the answer depends on the size of the divisions fielded by the country of whose army the corps is a part. British, French and German divisions were around 12-15,000 men at full strength. US divisions of WWI were huge, more than 26,000 men. So, a US corps with only two divisions was bigger than any other nation's corps with three.
