1+\frac{25}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{1}{4}+\left(1-x\right)^{2}+\frac{25}{64}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(\frac{5}{8}-x\right)^{2}.
\frac{89}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{1}{4}+\left(1-x\right)^{2}+\frac{25}{64}
Add 1 and \frac{25}{64} to get \frac{89}{64}.
\frac{89}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{1}{4}+1-2x+x^{2}+\frac{25}{64}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(1-x\right)^{2}.
\frac{89}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{5}{4}-2x+x^{2}+\frac{25}{64}
Add \frac{1}{4} and 1 to get \frac{5}{4}.
\frac{89}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{105}{64}-2x+x^{2}
Add \frac{5}{4} and \frac{25}{64} to get \frac{105}{64}.
\frac{89}{64}-\frac{5}{4}x+x^{2}+2x=\frac{105}{64}+x^{2}
Add 2x to both sides.
\frac{89}{64}+\frac{3}{4}x+x^{2}=\frac{105}{64}+x^{2}
Combine -\frac{5}{4}x and 2x to get \frac{3}{4}x.
\frac{89}{64}+\frac{3}{4}x+x^{2}-x^{2}=\frac{105}{64}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
\frac{89}{64}+\frac{3}{4}x=\frac{105}{64}
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
\frac{3}{4}x=\frac{105}{64}-\frac{89}{64}
Subtract \frac{89}{64} from both sides.
\frac{3}{4}x=\frac{1}{4}
Subtract \frac{89}{64} from \frac{105}{64} to get \frac{1}{4}.
x=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{4}{3}
Multiply both sides by \frac{4}{3}, the reciprocal of \frac{3}{4}.
x=\frac{1}{3}
Multiply \frac{1}{4} and \frac{4}{3} to get \frac{1}{3}.
