CENTUPLE Meaning and Definition

  1. Centuple is a verb that refers to the act of increasing something to a hundredfold or multiplying it by one hundred. The term derives from the Latin word "centum" meaning "hundred" and is commonly used in mathematics and statistics to describe a significant level of enlargement or amplification. When applied to numerical values, centupling denotes multiplying a specific quantity or variable by one hundred. For instance, if the original value is x, centupling it would result in a final value of 100x. This signifies an immense and dramatic increase, magnifying the initial quantity to a hundred times its original value.

    The term can also be used in a more metaphorical sense to describe a profound or extensive growth or expansion beyond expectations. In this context, centupling could refer to the substantial augmentation or enhancement of any aspect, such as knowledge, power, influence, or prosperity. It underscores the concept of exponential or remarkable progress, indicating a remarkable transformation or intensification at an unprecedented scale.

    Centuple is a powerful word that encapsulates the remarkable idea of a hundredfold increase or augmentation. It conveys the notion of significant enlargement or amplification that surpasses conventional scales and elevates the original quantity or attribute to an exceptional level.

  2. • A hundredfold.
    • To multiply a hundredfold.
