Answer:

Forty three AND one hundred six thousandths

Explanation:

If there is a comma ( , ) between the two numbers, you are correct.

If there is a period / dot ( . ) between them, and you need to read the place values, you must read the numbers to the right of the . as decimals. Those are the "th" numbers. 1 is in the tenths place, 0 in the hundredths place and the 6 in the thousandths place.

If you are simply reading out the digit names, without assigning their value, you might say "forty three POINT one hundred six" or "forty three DOT one hundred six" or "forty three DECIMAL one hundred six".
