How to install mods(Overview)
So there are multiple ways to install mods in to Arma 3 i will show you 3 ways in this guide.
Workshop(Steam)
PlayWith6 withsix.com
armaholic www.armaholic.com

If you install mods through armaholic you will need something to extract the files with.
I recommend using 7-Zip or WINRar.
7-Zip www.7-zip.org
WINRar www.rarlab.com

NOTE:Check if you have either of these on your computer (for me 7-Zip came with my pc)

How to install mods(armaholic)
Step 1: Choose the mod you like to install.
Step 2: After you have installed the file(s) go to your extracter(7-Zip,WinRar etc).
Step 3:Extract the file(s) to your Arma 3 folder by default: Steam SteamApps Common Arma 3
Step 4:Now go to Steam start the launcher and go to the mods tab then go to local mods and pick the mod(s) you want (if the mod doesnt show up in here go to the Arma 3 file Steam SteamApps Common Arma 3 and find the mod there and drag it into to the box on the launcher)
Step 5:Have fun!
