Answer: Americans use "triple" as a verb, adjective, and noun, while British and Australians use "treble" as a verb and "triple" as a noun and adjective.

Where treble has to do with threes, there is no substantive difference between it and triple. Treble is favored in a few specific contexts (in the game of darts, for instance), but triple is generally favored everywhere else.
