Solve for x:
x/8 = 342 x^2

Subtract 342 x^2 from both sides:
x/8 - 342 x^2 = 0

Factor x and constant terms from the left hand side:
-1/8 x (2736 x - 1) = 0

Multiply both sides by -8:
x (2736 x - 1) = 0

Split into two equations:
x = 0 or 2736 x - 1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides:
x = 0 or 2736 x = 1

Divide both sides by 2736:
Answer: |x = 0         or        x = 1/2736
