%N Smallest nontrivial number m that when expressed in base n and then interpreted in base 10, is a multiple of the original number.
%C Not defined for n>9.
%C Note that for n=1, the unitary numeral system is used, whereas for n>=2, it is the usual base-dependant positional numeral system. - _Michel Marcus_, Sep 16 2020
%e a(1)=3 since 3 in base 1 ('unary') is 111 and, interpreted in base 10, 111 is a number divisible by 3, whereas 2 in base 1 is 11 and, interpreted in base 10, 11 is not divisible by 2.
%e a(3)=7 since 7 in base 3 is 21 and, interpreted in base 10, 21 is divisible by 7, whereas 3, 4, 5, 6 in base 3 are, respectively, 10, 11, 12, 20 and, interpreted in base 10, these are numbers not divisible, respectively, by 3, 4, 5, 6.
%e Trivial solutions (i.e., m<n for n>1 and m=n for n=1) are not considered here.
