Answer:

1) Commutative property for multiplication

2) Commutative property for addition

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We have to identify the properties for addition and multiplication.

Associative Property:

The associative property states that we can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped. By grouped we mean how we use parenthesis.

a+(b+c) = (a+b)+c

a* (b* c) = (a* b)* c

Commutative Property:

Commutative property of addition and multiplication states that changing the order of the operands does not change the result.

a + b = b +a

a* b = b* a

1)
$8* \displaystyle(-5)/(6) = \displaystyle(-5)/(6)* 8$

a* b = b* a

This is commutative property for multiplication

2)
(3* 2) + 4 = 4 + (3* 2)

a + b = b +a

This is commutative property of addition.
