(ii) $\frac{- 6}{7} + \frac{- 5}{6} + \frac{- 4}{9} + \frac{- 15}{7}$

(iii) $\frac{3}{5} + \frac{7}{3} + \frac{9}{5} + \frac{- 13}{15} + \frac{- 7}{3}$

(iv) $\frac{4}{13} + \frac{- 5}{8} + \frac{- 8}{13} + \frac{9}{13}$

(vi) $\frac{1}{8} + \frac{5}{12} + \frac{2}{7} + \frac{7}{12} + \frac{9}{7} + \frac{- 5}{16}$

Name the property of multiplication illustrated by each of the following statements :

(i) $\frac{- 15}{8} \times \frac{- 12}{7} = \frac{- 12}{7} \times \frac{- 15}{8}$

(ii) $(\frac{- 2}{3} \times \frac{7}{9}) \times \frac{- 9}{5} = \frac{- 2}{3} \times (\frac{7}{9} \times \frac{- 9}{5})$

(iii) $\frac{- 3}{4} \times (\frac{- 3}{4} \times \frac{- 5}{6}) + (\frac{- 3}{4} \times \frac{7}{8})$

(iv) $\frac{- 16}{9} \times 1 = 1 \times \frac{- 16}{9} = \frac{- 16}{9}$

(v) $\frac{- 11}{15} \times \frac{15}{- 11} = \frac{15}{- 11} \times \frac{- 11}{15} = 1$

(vi) $\frac{- 7}{5} \times 0 = 0$

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) $\frac{- 16}{7} \times (\frac{- 8}{9} + \frac{- 7}{6}) = (\frac{- 16}{7} \times \frac{- 8}{9}) + (\frac{- 16}{7} \times \frac{- 7}{6})$
