2=2\left(4x^{2}+1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4x^{2}+1.
2=8x^{2}+2
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4x^{2}+1.
8x^{2}+2=2
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
8x^{2}=2-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
8x^{2}=0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
x^{2}=0
Divide both sides by 8. Zero divided by any non-zero number gives zero.
x=0 x=0
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x=0
The equation is now solved. Solutions are the same.

x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±0}{2}
Take the square root of 0^{2}.
x=0
Divide 0 by 2.
