In order to calculate this product, we need to use the following property:


a^b\cdot a^c=a^(b+c)

So we have:


\begin{gathered} 4.4\cdot10^(-7)\cdot3\cdot10^(-3) \\ =4.4\cdot3\cdot10^(-7)\cdot10^(-3) \\ =13.2\cdot10^(-7)\cdot10^(-3) \\ =13.2\cdot10^(-7+(-3)) \\ =13.2\cdot10^(-7-3) \\ =13.2\cdot10^(-10) \end{gathered}
