((8^x −2^x )/(6^x −3^x ))=2 , find x ?  ((2^x (4^x −1))/(3^x (2^x −1)))=2  ((2^x (2^(2x) −1))/(3^x (2^x −1)))=2  ((2^x (2^x −1)(2^x +1))/(3^x (2^x −1)))=2 ;2^x ≠1⇒x≠0^★   ((2^x (2^x +1))/3^x )=2  Assuming x a whole number  2^x ∙((2^x +1)/3^x )=2=1×2  (2^x =1 ∧  ((2^x +1)/3^x )=2)∨(2^x =2 ∧ ((2^x +1)/3^x )=1)  (2^x =2^0  ∧  ((2^0 +1)/3^0 )=2)∨(2^x =2^1  ∧ ((2^1 +1)/3^1 )=1)  x≠0^★    Hence x=1 (Only one solution in whole numbers)
