This can depend on a few different scientific factors.

The first scenario is that the woman releases more than one egg. If more than one egg is released and a sperm finds each one of the eggs than it is possible to have as many babies as there are eggs released.

The most common form of multiples happens when multiple sperm fertilize one single egg. If there are multiple sperm cells in one egg the cell then splits and creates as many fetuses as there were sperm. This is why there are identical twins and triplets, they share every bit the same DNA
