$\begin{gathered} 14w+12=180 \\ \text{Start by collecting all like terms which means 12 will move to the right side of the equation} \\ 14w=180-12 \\ \text{Note also that when a positive number crosses the equality sign from one side to the other, its sign changes from positive to negative, and vice versa} \\ 14w=168 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 14} \\ (14w)/(14)=(168)/(14) \\ w=12 \end{gathered}$
