how do i get a smaller number by multiplying decimals?

I am really bad at maths and I struggle to understand the physical logic behind this. 0.35 × 0.4 = 0.14 I simply don't understand why it should not be 1.4 Can someone explain it like I am five?

Edit: Everyone is so nice 😭 thank you guys, it made sense for me when thinking it's more like dividing when it's below 1. love you all
