I am try to copy a formula for a cell above to the cells below. But the
value of the cell above copies to the cell below. How can I fix that. Below
is an example where I am multiplying column A and B.

2 3 6
4 4 6
6 2 6
4 2 6
5 3 6

Use relative referencing. Below are the different reference styles.

A1 Relative referencing. Both column and row will change if you copy or drag
the formula.
$A1 The column reference is fixed and will not change
A$1 The row reference is fixed and will not change.
$A$1 Column and row reference are fixed.

Here you need to use =A1+B1
