By the definition of logarithms, that is equivalent to
the exponential equation:
4 = 8x
Since 4 = 2² and 8 = 2³ we can substitute these for 4 and 8
22 = (23)x
Multiply expomemts on the right to remove parentheses:
22 = 23x
Since the base 2 is the same on both sides and is positive
and not equal to 1, we can equate the exponents:
2 = 3x
= x
