To divide \( 8 \times 10^3 \) by \( 4 \times 10^6 \), you can divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents of the powers of 10.
1. Divide the coefficients:
\[
\frac{8}{4} = 2
\]
2. Subtract the exponents:
\[
10^{3 - 6} = 10^{-3}
\]
Now, combine the results:
\[
2 \times 10^{-3}
\]
Thus, the answer in scientific notation is:
\[
\boxed{2 \times 10^{-3}}
\]
