Verify the property: $x \times (y \times z) = (x \times y) \times z$ by taking: $\text{x}=\frac{5}{7},\text{y}=\frac{-12}{13},\text{z=}\frac{-7}{18}$
Answer$\text{x}=\frac{5}{7},\text{y}=\frac{-12}{13},\text{z}=\frac{-7}{18}$
$\text{x}(\text{y}\times\text{z})=\frac{5}{7}\times\Big(\frac{-12}{13}\times\frac{-7}{18}\Big)$
$=\frac{5}{7}\times\frac{14}{39}=\frac{10}{39}$
$(\text{x}\times\text{y})\times\text{z}=\frac{5}{7}\times\frac{-12}{13}\times\frac{-7}{18}$
$=\frac{-60}{91}\times\frac{-7}{18}=\frac{10}{39}$
