Name the property of multiplication shown by each of the following statements:
(i) `(-12)/(5) xx (3)/(4)=(3)/(4)xx (-12)/(5)`
(ii) `(-8)/(15) xx 1=(-8)/(15)`
(iii) `((-2)/(3) xx (7)/(8)) xx (-5)/(7) = (-2)/(3) xx ((7)/(8) xx (-5)/(7))`
(iv) `(-2)/(3) xx 0=0`
(v) `(2)/(5) xx ((-4)/(5) +(-3)/(10)) = ((2)/(5) xx (-4)/(5)) +((2)/(5)xx (-3)/(10))`
