Does $\frac{n(A+B)}{2}+\frac{m(C+D)}{2}=1+\frac{nB+mD}{nA+mC}$?

Does the following equality hold: $$\frac{n(A+B)}{2}+\frac{m(C+D)}{2}=1+\frac{nB+mD}{nA+mC}?$$ This seems to be implied in the given solution to a course problem I'm working on, but I can't follow the reasoning. (I'm hoping this is just a fraction-manipulation problem; including the context would make the question considerably longer.)
