In the literature, recently, some three-step schemes involving four function evaluations for the solution of multiple roots of nonlinear equations, whose multiplicity is not known in advance, are considered, but they do not agree with Kung–Traub’s conjecture. The present article is devoted to the study of an iterative scheme for approximating multiple roots with a convergence rate of eight, when the multiplicity is hidden, which agrees with Kung–Traub’s conjecture. The theoretical study of the convergence rate is investigated and demonstrated. A few nonlinear problems are presented to justify the theoretical study.
