Conclusion

Multimedia and hypermedia are terms that are used to refer to the
incorporation of more than one form of media but their variation
lies in their application. Multimedia is sequential and typically
used for such kinds of information consumption, while
hypermedia is more subject to interaction and nonsequential. It is
also important to have an understanding on these distinctions so
you can identify which approach is more suitable.
