How to do ax-b = cx-d

How do I do this equation!?

-
ax-b = cx-d
ax - cx = b - d
x(a - c) = (b - d)
x = (b - d)/(a - c)

-
ax - b = cx - d add b to each side
ax - b + b = cx - d + b
ax = cx + (b - d) subtract cx to both sides

ax - cx = cx + (b - d) - cx
ax - cx = b - d factor x from the left-hand side
x(a - c) = b - d divide both sides by (a - c)
x(a-c)/(a-c) = (b-d)/(a-c)
x = (b-d)/(a-c)

-
Isolate the x on the left side:

ax - b - cx = - d

Add b to each side:

ax - cx = b - d

Factor out the x:

x(a - c) = b - d

Divide each side by (a - c)

x = (b - d)/(a - c)

-
ax-b=cx-d
subtract cx from each side
ax-cx-b=-d
add b to each side
ax-cx=b-d
x(a-c) = b-d
divide both sides by a-c
x = (b-d)/(a-c)
