I'm not sure what you mean by multi-tasking. Android applications normally do not terminate when you have finished with them: they stay there in the background until the memory is needed for something else.
However, if you go to "Developer options" in Settings, under Apps you will find a check box "Don't keep activities", with the description "Destroy every activity as soon as the user leaves it". You can tick that if you really want to, but that's not the way Android normally works.
