27x^{3}-54x^{2}+36x-8-\left(3x-2\right)\left(9x^{2}+6x+4\right)=6\left(1+3x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{3}=a^{3}-3a^{2}b+3ab^{2}-b^{3} to expand \left(3x-2\right)^{3}.
27x^{3}-54x^{2}+36x-8-\left(27x^{3}-8\right)=6\left(1+3x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3x-2 by 9x^{2}+6x+4 and combine like terms.
27x^{3}-54x^{2}+36x-8-27x^{3}+8=6\left(1+3x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
To find the opposite of 27x^{3}-8, find the opposite of each term.
-54x^{2}+36x-8+8=6\left(1+3x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
Combine 27x^{3} and -27x^{3} to get 0.
-54x^{2}+36x=6\left(1+3x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
Add -8 and 8 to get 0.
-54x^{2}+36x=\left(6+18x\right)\left(1-3x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 1+3x.
-54x^{2}+36x=6-54x^{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply 6+18x by 1-3x and combine like terms.
-54x^{2}+36x+54x^{2}=6
Add 54x^{2} to both sides.
36x=6
Combine -54x^{2} and 54x^{2} to get 0.
x=\frac{6}{36}
Divide both sides by 36.
x=\frac{1}{6}
Reduce the fraction \frac{6}{36} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 6.
