When you send a process to the background, whether by using ctrl-z or by & at the end of the command, you get an output in the following format: [index] process-id. If you send multiple processes to the background, the index will keep incrementing every time.
For example:
$ sleep 100 &
[1] 41608
$ sleep 101 &
[2] 41609
$ sleep 102 &
[3] 41610
$ sleep 103 &
[4] 41611
$ sleep 104 &
[5] 41612
$ sleep 105 &
[6] 41613
$ sleep 106 &
[7] 41614
In order to stop a specific one, you can either use kill <process-id> or use fg <index> followed by ctrl-c
Example using the previous output:
$ kill 41614
or
$ fg 7
sleep 106

When you send a process to the background, whether by using ctrl-z or by & at the end of the command, you get an output in the following format: [index] process-id. If you send multiple processes to the background, the index will keep incrementing every time.
For example:
$ sleep 100 &
[1] 41608
$ sleep 101 &
[2] 41609
$ sleep 102 &
[3] 41610
$ sleep 103 &

$ sleep 104 &
[5] 41612
$ sleep 105 &
[6] 41613
$ sleep 106 &
[7] 41614
In order to stop a specific one, you can either use kill <process-id> or use fg <index> followed by ctrl-c
Example using the previous output:
$ kill 41614
or
$ fg 7
sleep 106
