2. Multiply 6 by all the numbers in 0.003
0.003

0018
3. Multiply 3 by all the numbers in 0.003. But because "3" is followed by a number you leave a blank or a zero in the ones place
0.003
x 3.6
---------------
0018
+ 00090
---------------
4. Add the numbers you got
0.003

---------------
0018
+ 00090

00108
5. Count the number of decimal points or numbers after the decimal point in both numbers and add them
3.6 = one decimal place
0.003= three decimal places
Three plus one = four
6. Count the total number of decimal places
0010.8 = one decimal place
001.08 = two decimal places
00.108 = three decimal places
0.0108 = four decimal places
