To find \( n \), the number of cakes the restaurant has donated after \( w \) weeks, you can use the multiplication rule. Since the restaurant donates 12 cakes each week, the formula to calculate the total number of cakes donated after \( w \) weeks is:
\[ n = 12 \times w \]
So the relationship can be expressed with an input-output arrow as follows:
Input (w) → Output (n)
\( w \) weeks → \( n = 12 \times w \)
In this context, you would multiply by 12 to find the number of cakes donated. Therefore, the answer to your question is "multiply by 12."
\[ n = 12 \times w \]
