What is a Triple in Math?

Triple is a number that is three times as large as another number. For example, if we have the number 3, then 3 x 3 = 9, so 9 is a triple of 3.

In general, if we have two numbers, a and b, then a triple of b is a number that is three times as large as b. This can be written as:

a triple of b = 3b

So, for example, if we have the number 4, then a triple of 4 is:

3 x 4 = 12
