Cyclic Permutation of Kaprekar Number/Examples/2727

Example of Cyclic Permutation of Kaprekar Number

$2727$ is a cyclic permutation of the $4$-digit Kaprekar number $7272$.

Thus we have:

\(\ds 2727^2\) \(=\) \(\ds 7 \, 436 \, 529\)
\(\ds 743 + 6529\) \(=\) \(\ds 7272\)

and it is seen that $7272$ is a (trivial) cyclic permutation of $7272$.
