On my multiboot screen I have several versions of ubuntu. Is there any way to only show the latest one. Not every version whenever I upgrade?

Thanks

They are not really the different versions of Ubuntu but only the different versions of Kernel. And it is advised that you keep at least one older kernel as a backup plan so if something goes wrong with the current one.

You can follow this page.

The most common clean up task for the boot menu is to remove old kernel versions lying around on your machine.
