Cyclic Number




A  cyclic number is a number with "n" digits, when multiplied by the numbers 1,2,3,.......n, the result will be the same digits of that number but in different order.


Formula :

(bp-1 - 1) / p
 
 
Example: 
 
Number = 142857,
 
 142857 × 1 = 142857
 142857 × 2 = 285714
 142857 × 3 = 428571
 142857 × 4 = 571428
 142857 × 5 = 714285
 142857 × 6 = 857142
