what is the difference between multitasking and
multithreading?

Answer Posted / ashok kumar

multitasking :multitasking is a method by which multiple
tasks, also known as processes, share common processing
resources such as a CPU. With a multitasking OS, you can
simultaneously run multiple applications.

Multithreading : extends the idea of multitasking into
applications, so you can subdivide specific operations
within a single application into individual threads. Each of
the threads can run in parallel. The OS divides processing
time not only among different applications, but also among
each thread within an application
