To write 0.013 in expanded notation, you need to express each digit in the number according to its place value.

Here's how you can do it step-by-step:

1. First, let's identify the place value of each digit in the number 0.013:
- The digit '0' is in the tenths place.
- The digit '1' is in the hundredths place.
- The digit '3' is in the thousandths place.

2. Now, write each digit in its place value form:
- 0.013 can be written as (0 x 0.1) + (1 x 0.01) + (3 x 0.001).

3. Simplify the expression:
- (0 x 0.1) + (1 x 0.01) + (3 x 0.001) = 0 + 0.01 + 0.003.

4. Add the terms together to get the final answer:
- 0 + 0.01 + 0.003 = 0.013.

Therefore, the expanded notation of 0.013 is (0 x 0.1) + (1 x 0.01) + (3 x 0.001), or simply 0.01 + 0.003.
