Write the problem: 12ds/w = cd

Divide each side by 'd': 12s/w = c

Multiply each side by 'w' : 12s = cw

Divide each side by 'c' : 12s/c = w

Was that too fast for you ?

12ds/w = cd\\\\ \frac{\big{12\cdot d\cdot s}}{\big{w}} =c\cdot d\ /\cdot w\\\\\frac{\big{12\cdot d\cdot s\cdot w}}{\big{w}} =c\cdot d\cdot w\\\\12\cdot d\cdot s=c\cdot d\cdot w\ /:(c\cdot d)\\\\\frac{\big{12\cdot d\cdot s}}{\big{c\cdot d}} =\frac{\big{c\cdot d\cdot w}}{\big{c\cdot d}} \\\\\frac{\big{12 s}}{\big{c}} =w
