eq. 1:     f(x) = 4x / 4(1-x) + 4

replace x with 1-x, we get

eq 2:     f(1- x) = 4(1-x) / 4(1-x) + 4x

add eq 1 and eq 2

f(x) + f(1-x) =   [ 4x + 4(1-x) ] / [ 4(1-x) + 4x  ]

f(x) + f(1-x) = 1

x = 1/65

f(1/65) + f(64/65) = 1

f(2/65) + f(63/65) = 1

f(3/65) + f(62/65) = 1

f(4/65) + f(61/65) = 1

f(5/65) + f(60/65) = 1 

.

.

.

f(30/65) + f(35/65) = 1 

f(31/65) + f(34/65) = 1  

f(32/65) + f(33/65) = 1 

 on summing all we get

f(1/65) + f(2/65) + f(3/65) + ...................................................................... + f(64/65)  = 32

so answer is 32
