We offer a complete answer to the following question on the growth of sumsets in commutative groups. Let h be a positive integer and be finite sets in a commutative group. We bound from above in terms of |A|, |A + B₁|, ..., and h. Extremal examples, which demonstrate that the bound is asymptotically sharp in all parameters, are furthermore provided.
