AHSME 1969 Problem 1

    When xx is added to both the numerator and denominator of the fraction ab,a≠b,b≠0\frac{a}{b},a \ne b,b \ne 0, the value of the fraction is changed to cd\frac{c}{d}. Then xx equals: (A) 1c−d(B) ad−bcc−d(C) ad−bcc+d(D) bc−adc−d(E) bc+adc−d\text{(A) } \frac{1}{c-d} \text{(B) } \frac{ad-bc}{c-d} \text{(C) } \frac{ad-bc}{c+d} \text{(D) }\frac{bc-ad}{c-d} \text{(E) } \frac{bc+ad}{c-d}
