Multiple \Mul"ti*ple\, n. (Math.)
   A quantity containing another quantity an integral number of
   times without a remainder.
   [1913 Webster]
   Note: A
   common multiple of two or more numbers contains each of
      them a number of times exactly; thus, 24 is a common
      multiple of 3 and 4. The
   least common multiple is the smallest number that will do
      this; thus, 12 is the least common multiple of 3 and 4
      (abbreviated LCM).
