triplicating
Creating three copies
Triplicating is making three copies of something, or multiplying by three.
The word appears most often in administrative and scientific contexts where exact replication matters: The lab protocol requires triplicating each sample to ensure reliable results.
Someone triplicating a document produces three identical versions, while triplicating a number yields three times the original amount.
