The Chain Rule & Implicit Differentiation · Medium problem

Let f(u,v,w)f(u, v, w) be any differentiable function of three variables, and let W(x,y,z)=f(x−y, y−z, z−x)W(x,y,z) = f(x - y,\ y - z,\ z - x). Find the value of ∂W∂x+∂W∂y+∂W∂z\dfrac{\partial W}{\partial x} + \dfrac{\partial W}{\partial y} + \dfrac{\partial W}{\partial z}.
