You have the following expression:

8⁴·8³

In order to simplify the previous expression, consider that the product in between two numbers with the same base is equal to a number with the same base and an exponent which is equal to the sum of the exponents of the numbers, then, you have:

8⁴·8³ = 8⁷

Hence, the simplified expression is 8⁷
