When multiplying (or doing any mathematics) to binary and decimal numbers, would you simply convert then multiply in decimals?
E.g., 3(base10) * 100(base2) would = 3 * 4 = 12?
You can multiply in any base as long as the base is the same for each operand.
In your example, you could have converted the 3(base10) to 11(base2) and multiplied:
11 * 100 = 1100
1100(Base2) = 12(base10)
