Explanation:

Step1: Multiply the coefficients

$9.6 \times 8 = 76.8$

Step2: Multiply the powers of 10

$10^{-3} \times 10^{-4} = 10^{-3 + (-4)} = 10^{-7}$

Step3: Combine results, adjust to scientific notation

$76.8 \times 10^{-7} = 7.68 \times 10^{1} \times 10^{-7} = 7.68 \times 10^{-6}$

Answer:

$7.68 \times 10^{-6}$
