-27i\left(1-q\right)\times \frac{1}{27}x^{2}=81\left(q-1\right)
Variable q cannot be equal to 1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 27\left(q-1\right), the least common multiple of 1-q,27.
-i\left(1-q\right)x^{2}=81\left(q-1\right)
Multiply -27i and \frac{1}{27} to get -i.
\left(-i+iq\right)x^{2}=81\left(q-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -i by 1-q.
-ix^{2}+iqx^{2}=81\left(q-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -i+iq by x^{2}.
-ix^{2}+iqx^{2}=81q-81
Use the distributive property to multiply 81 by q-1.
-ix^{2}+iqx^{2}-81q=-81
Subtract 81q from both sides.
iqx^{2}-81q=-81-\left(-ix^{2}\right)
Subtract -ix^{2} from both sides.
iqx^{2}-81q=-81+ix^{2}
Multiply -1 and -i to get i.
\left(ix^{2}-81\right)q=-81+ix^{2}
Combine all terms containing q.
\left(ix^{2}-81\right)q=ix^{2}-81
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(ix^{2}-81\right)q}{ix^{2}-81}=\frac{ix^{2}-81}{ix^{2}-81}
Divide both sides by ix^{2}-81.
q=\frac{ix^{2}-81}{ix^{2}-81}
Dividing by ix^{2}-81 undoes the multiplication by ix^{2}-81.
q=1
Divide ix^{2}-81 by ix^{2}-81.
q\in \emptyset
Variable q cannot be equal to 1.
