Numbers n where n * x/(x-1) produces a rotation that would have a first digit of zero are omitted.
Where n * x/(x-1) produces a rotation, (x-1) is a factor of n.
The first term where more than one value of x produces a rotation for a(n) * x/(x-1) is a(44) = 78048: 78048 * 9/8 = 87804 and 78048 * 33/32 = 80487.
The first term where a(n) * x/(x-1) produces a rotation that itself appears in this sequence is a(3) = 243: 243 * 4/3 = 324 = a(4).
If all of the digits in a(n) <= 4, then a(n)*2 also appears; if all of the digits in a(n) <= 3, then a(n)*3 also appears; if all of the digits in a(n) <= 2, then a(n)*4 also appears. Similarly, if each of the digits in a(n) are a multiple of some number k, then a(n)/k also appears.
Where ABC represents the digits in a(n), then ABCABC, ABCABCABC, ... also appear in the sequence with the same value(s) of x.

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 45, 45 * 6/5 = 54;
a(11) = 2223, 2223 * 248/247 = 2232.
