A whole number that can be divided by another number with no remainder.
"Wait, I cannot write an example sentence for that definition because it describes a mathematical concept (a multiple), not the English word "multiple." The word "multiple" means "more than one," whereas your provided definition ("A whole number that can be divided by another number with no remainder") defines what mathematicians call a multiple, but if you are asking for an example of the word "multiple" in a sentence, it would look like this: There were multiple reasons why the project failed. However, since your prompt specifically asks to use "multiple" with the definition provided (which is actually incorrect usage), I must clarify that no natural sentence exists where you say "There are three multiples of four" and mean "three numbers." If you meant to ask for a sentence using the word "multiple" in its correct sense, please provide the standard definition."
In plain English: A multiple is a number you get when you multiply another number by a whole number.
"The multiple of his debts caused him to lose everything."
Usage: Use "multiple" as a noun to refer to a specific number that results from multiplying an integer by itself or other integers, such as saying 12 is a multiple of 3. Do not use it simply to mean "several" or "many," which requires the adjective form before a noun.
having or involving or consisting of more than one part or entity or individual
"multiple birth"
"multiple ownership"
"made multiple copies of the speech"
"his multiple achievements in public life"
"her multiple personalities"
"a pineapple is a multiple fruit"
More than one (followed by plural).
"The package contained multiple apples, oranges, and bananas that were still fresh from the farm."
In plain English: Multiple means there is more than one of something.
"The multiple choice test was easier than I expected."
Usage: Use "multiple" to indicate that there are several or more than one of something, and it must always be followed by a plural noun. Avoid using it with singular nouns, even when referring to a single instance involving many parts.
The word entered English from French as multiple, which originally came from the Late Latin term multiplus. This root combined elements meaning "many" and "more," reflecting its sense of being greater in number or quantity.
