Multimedia is the marriage of media and content, and it is any version of media that relays information or text. The multimedia combines delivery hardware, which facilitates audio, video, and display output. A multimedia is a group of external interpretation of the information using a vast array of coding.

Hypermedia, on the other hand, is an example of multimedia with non -linear content, such as media used to interact with others. Education is the best example of utilizing multimedia. Such trainings are known as computer-based training.

A lot of in-depth training is done through multimedia nowadays. Hypermedia, on the other hand, is the use of specific media interconnected with each other, which demonstrates a culmination of information that is considered nonlinear.
