What is a positive multiple?

A positive multiple is one where the result of the multiplication is greater than zero. It is often useful to know what multiples two numbers have in common.

For the given situation,

The number is 9+3

⇒ $9+3=12$

Option A) 3

We could not express 3 in terms of 12.

So 3 is not the multiple of 12.

Option B) 12

⇒ $12(1)=12$

So 12 is the multiple of 12.

Option C) 24

⇒ $12(2)=24$

So 24 is the multiple of 12.

Option D) 48

⇒ $12(4)=48$

So 48 is the multiple of 12.

Option E) 60

⇒ $12(5)=60$

So 60 is the multiple of 12.

Hence we can conclude that option (A) is NOT a positive multiple of 12.
