Its simply the division property. You divided 1 by 12 to get 1/12. The property always relates to the action you took to get to the next step :)
edit: the answer below reminded me of the proper name so here it is: the division property of equality

"multiplicative property of equality" which says that you can multiply both sides of an equation by the same thing (in this case 1/12).
that's it! ;)

SUBSTITUTION Property! :) (First divide each side by twelve, and there you have it!).
