Remember when we multiply negative numbers we need to be careful in the sign


-0.8\cdot-0.3\cdot-0.4=-0.096​

Remember when we multiply decimals, first multiply as if there is no decimal. Next, count the number of digits after the decimal in each factor. Finally, put the same number of digits behind the decimal in the product.
