Yes as for example it can be a multiple of 1 because 1*3 = 3

No, a Prime number cannot be a multiple of any other number except for 1 and itself. By definition, a prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that cannot be formed by multiplying two smaller natural numbers. Therefore, a prime number will only have two factors - 1 and itself - making it impossible for it to be a multiple of any other number except itself.
