The function f defined by f(x)= \frac{ax+b}{cx+d}, where a, b, c and d are nonzero real numbers, has the properties f(19)=19, f(97)=97 and f(f(x))=x for all values except \frac{-d}{c}. Find the unique number that is not in the range of f.
Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
