PLease note that in mathematics, "of" means multiplication. Thus, 12% of (3/4) of 1.8 can be rewritten as
((12)/(100)) * (3)/(4)* 1.8

Thus we have:
0.12 * 0.75 * 1.8

Now,
0.12 * 0.75 * 1.8=0.162

Therefore, 12% of (3/4) of 1.8 expressed as a decimal is 0.162.

Therefore, 0.162 is the correct answer.
