Don't know what 97- and 12 - mean.
However if you are asking what property states that
(-12)(-97) = (-97)(-12), then the answer is the commutative property of multiplication.

Commutative property!

Sounds like an expensive property?

Essentially, you are saying -1x12 and -1x97 versus 97x-1 and 12x-1. That is the commutative property of multiplication

A sq. is the rectangle having the perfect section for a given perimeter. she will run the fence beginning on one area of the residing house, going around, then attaching to the different area of the residing house; this way she gets a fringe better than the size of the fence. If it does no longer might desire to be a rectangle, a circle will supply the main section for a given perimeter
