check your build.gradle file has following code.

android{
    defaultConfig {

        // Enabling multidex support.
        multiDexEnabled true
    }


    dexOptions {
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
    }
}
dependencies {
    //...
    compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'
}

enable multidex as following:

android {    
defaultConfig {
    // Enabling multidex support.
    multiDexEnabled true
 }  
}
 dependencies {
 compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'
}

create one class like this

public class Multi_Dex extends Application {
 @Override
 protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
    super.attachBaseContext(base);
    MultiDex.install(this);
 }
}

now in your manifiest file add this

<application
    android:name=".Multi_Dex"
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/logo"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
