Numerical superiority helps ensure military victory. In any conflict, you don't want to be evenly matched, you want to have overwhelming advantage. You minimize your losses that way. In other words, if you hold a 2:1 advantage on the field of combat, you stand to lose much less than 50% of your force.
Trying to maintain an advantage across multiple fronts consumes substantial resources. Enemies do not attack strong points, they attack where you are weakest. Splitting forces is generally considered a bad idea, unless both forces are concentrating on the same enemy position.
Picture a box with four sides. Fighting on 1 side is one front. Fighting on two sides of the box is fighting on two fronts. Three sides of the box is 3 fronts, four sides of the box (surrounded) is fighting on four fronts. Two or more fronts is a multi front war.

This might not be the one you're looking for, but one long-term disadvantage was that the US had to fight a two front war throughout the war. Also, both of those fronts were over large oceans, which made fighting and resupplying on the two fronts that much more difficult.
The US fought in many different parts of the world during the war. A front is just a boundary between countries involved in the war, so multiple fronts is just, multiple of these different boundaries. The US fought in several different fronts which included, but are not limited to, Northern Africa, South East Asia, and Europe. These were all different fronts, as they are in different locations in the world.
The U.S. fighting on two fronts typically refers to a military strategy where American forces engage in combat in two distinct geographical areas simultaneously. This approach can stretch resources and complicate logistics, requiring careful coordination and planning. Historically, this concept is exemplified by World War II, where the U.S. fought in both the European and Pacific theaters, and it highlights the challenges of managing multiple conflicts at once. The strategy aims to weaken enemy forces on different fronts and prevent them from concentrating their efforts.

Fighting a war on multiple fronts presents significant logistical, strategic, and resource allocation challenges. Commanders must divide their forces, which can weaken their overall strength and complicate coordination and communication. Additionally, maintaining supply lines and reinforcements across various theaters can strain resources and complicate planning. This fragmentation can lead to vulnerabilities, making it easier for opponents to exploit weaknesses in specific areas.
