The image shows a matrix multiplication problem involving three 3x3 matrices. Let's denote these matrices as:

\[
A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}, \quad B = \begin{bmatrix} 7 & 5 & -6 \\ 8 & 10 & -2 \\ -1 & 1 & -9 \end{bmatrix}, \quad C = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}
\]

We want to find the result of the product \( A \cdot B \cdot C \).

### Step-by-Step Solution

1. **Multiplication by the Zero Matrix:**

   The first matrix \( A \) is a zero matrix. When any matrix is multiplied by a zero matrix, the result will always be a zero matrix of the appropriate size.

   Therefore, \( A \cdot B \) will be:

   \[
   A \cdot B = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}
   \]

2. **Multiplication of the Zero Matrix by Another Matrix:**

   Next, we multiply the result with matrix \( C \):

   \[
   (A \cdot B) \cdot C = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix} \cdot C
   \]

   Since the product of a zero matrix with any matrix is still a zero matrix, the final result will be:

   \[
   \text{Result} = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}
   \]

### Conclusion

The answer to the matrix multiplication problem is a 3x3 zero matrix:

\[
\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}
\]
