| ( | 1 | + | i | ) | ÷ | 51 50 | − | 1 | = | 10 100 |
| Left side of the equation = | 1 | × | 50 51 | + | i | × | 50 51 | − | 1 |
| = | 50 51 | + | i | × | 50 51 | − | 1 |
| = | - | 1 51 | + | 50 51 | i |
| - | 1 51 | + | 50 51 | i | = | 10 100 |
50 51 | i | = | 10 100 | + | 1 51 |
50 51 | i | = | 61 510 |
| i | = | 61 510 | ÷ | 50 51 |
| = | 61 510 | × | 51 50 |
| = | 61 10 | × | 1 50 |
| i | = | 61 500 |
| i | = | 0.122 |
