Virtues of salah in congregation

I hear people saying

1. Salah in congregation in the Masjid earns  25-27  times more reward,

2. There is a narration in ibn Majah saying it’s 500 times.

Which, one is more authentic?

Answer:

The first one is authentic, and is recorded in Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.
