On iPhone you cannot (unless there is some app in the App Store that allows you to do it. If you sync your contact through a service such as iCloud, GMail, Outlook, etc, sign in to the account through the website and delete multiple contacts that way.


Or use desktop apps such as Contacts app on macOS or Outlook on PC to manage your contacts account.


Otherwise sent Apple feedback/enhancement request at www.apple.com/feedback to implement into Contacts app on iPhone an option to delete multiple contact cards in one go.
