Multiply the terms

4 x^{2} \times 16 x

Multiply the terms

64 x^{2} \times x

Multiply the terms with the same base by adding their exponents

64 x^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers

64 x^{3}

64 x^{3} - 20 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

64 x^{3} = 0 + 20

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

64 x^{3} = 20

Divide both sides

\frac{64 x ^{3}}{64} = \frac{20}{64}

Divide the numbers

x^{3} = \frac{20}{64}

Cancel out the common factor 4

x^{3} = \frac{5}{16}

Take the 3 -th root on both sides of the equation

3 x^{3} = 3 \frac{5}{16}

Calculate

x = 3 \frac{5}{16}
