(cx+d)/a
-------
(cx/d) = 2d/a

multiply both sides by a
(cx+d)/cx/d=2d
This is d(cx+d)/cx=2d
d will cancel
(cx+d)/cx=2
cx+d=2cx
subtract cx from both sides
d=cx
x=d/c

If , then:


------ Cancelling GCF, d in numerator, and GCF, a in denominator
2cx = cx + d ------ Cross-multiplying
2cx - cx = d
cx = d
