Etymology: < post-classical Latin sextuplicatus sixfold (7th cent.), probably < classical Latin sextus sixth (see sext n.¹) + -uplicātus (in quadruplicātus quadruplicate adj.); compare post-classical Latin sextuplic- , sextuplex sextuplex adj. In use as noun after duplicate n.

A. adj.

Originally: (Mathematics) designating a proportion between two pairs of quantities in which the ratio of one pair is equal to the ratio of the sixth powers of the other pair, and one between two variable quantities in which one has a constant ratio to the sixth power of the other (now historical). Later: (gen.) sixfold; sextuple; consisting of six identical or similar things.
