tabularx is completely unsuitable for numeric data tables really.
To answer your question it is important to realize that tabularx never adjusts inter-column space (tabular* does that) and never looks at the content of any cell in the table. It simply makes each X column into a p... column, choosing the value to use for ... so the table ends up at the specified total width. As such the only thing tabularx controls is the target width for line breaking within a cell, and in a table of numeric values there is no line breaking.
If you want adjustment of inter-columns space, and no line breaking then tabular8 is what you want:

@Diaa tabular* meets the target width by adding theextracolsepspace between columns, normally you can just usefillbut here the table is too wide so actually you want to add negative space. there I added a space with natural width 0pt that can stretch to 5pt or shrink to -3pt which allows the table to be squeezed up a bit and fit.
