ثمانية أضعاف, ستة أضعاف, سبعة أضعاف


Explanation:
The word 8x for example means 8 times the value of X so it has to be translated: ثمانية أضعاف
Same applies for 6x and 7x

maybe it is a "%" not an "X"


Explanation:
treating X as multiples doesn't jibe with the rest of the sentence.
so either it is a typo of % or they are all coefficients in a formula .... I believe more context is needed.
