Factor $x$ out of $27 x^{4}$ .

$x (27 x^{3}) - x$

Factor $x$ out of $- x$ .

$x (27 x^{3}) + x \cdot - 1$

Factor $x$ out of $x (27 x^{3}) + x \cdot - 1$ .

$x (27 x^{3} - 1)$

Rewrite $27 x^{3}$ as ${(3 x)}^{3}$ .

$x ({(3 x)}^{3} - 1)$

Rewrite $1$ as $1^{3}$ .

$x ({(3 x)}^{3} - 1^{3})$

Since both terms are perfect cubes, factor using the difference of cubes formula, $a^{3} - b^{3} = (a - b) (a^{2} + a b + b^{2})$ where $a = 3 x$ and $b = 1$ .

$x ((3 x - 1) ({(3 x)}^{2} + 3 x \cdot 1 + 1^{2}))$

Factor.

$x ((3 x - 1) (3^{2} x^{2} + 3 x \cdot 1 + 1^{2}))$

Raise $3$ to the power of $2$ .

$x ((3 x - 1) (9 x^{2} + 3 x \cdot 1 + 1^{2}))$

Multiply $3$ by $1$ .

$x ((3 x - 1) (9 x^{2} + 3 x + 1^{2}))$

One to any power is one.

$x ((3 x - 1) (9 x^{2} + 3 x + 1))$

Remove unnecessary parentheses.
