Default Excel formula questin

I am trying to multiply 2 cells in a separate cell then multiply the total by
a percentage and add the percentage to get the final total in a single cell.
For instance i have a number in A3 and a number in B3. Then in C3 I am
trying to multiply A3 and B3 then take the total of those 2 and multiply by
18% but then have the 18% added as the final total that shows up in C3.
Can anyone help with this formula?

=1.18*A3*B3

Assuming that "then take the total of those 2" really means take the PRODUCT
of those two
