Verify the following :

(i) $\frac{3}{7} \times (\frac{5}{6} + \frac{12}{13}) = (\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{5}{6}) + (\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{12}{13})$
(ii) $\frac{- 15}{4} \times (\frac{3}{7} + \frac{- 12}{5}) = (\frac{- 15}{4} \times \frac{3}{7}) + (\frac{- 15}{4} \times \frac{- 12}{5})$
(iii) $(\frac{- 8}{3} + \frac{- 13}{12}) \times \frac{5}{6} = (\frac{- 8}{3} \times \frac{5}{6}) + (\frac{- 13}{12} \times \frac{5}{6})$
(iv) $\frac{- 16}{7} \times (\frac{- 8}{9} + \frac{- 7}{6}) = (\frac{- 16}{7} \times \frac{- 8}{9}) + (\frac{- 16}{7} \times \frac{- 7}{6})$
