Find a natural number n>0 with the following property:
If we take the first degit and make it last (while keeping the other digits as they are) the number m we just made is the half of the first number n (or n = 2m).

For example if n = 2745 then m = 7452 but n=/= 2m. Therefore n is not the number we want.



NOTE: There are many such numbers n. All I ask is to give me one possible number n that satisfies the conditions.
NOTE2: Maths are not necessary to solve the problem(maybe a few basics only). If you know Maths then this will help you and there is a mathematical solution. But I guarantee that you don't have to know anything special.

Well, I got the number, but it's kind of big and my methodology is... questionable. :S

I'll try again tomorrow and if I can't get any better results I suppose I'll post it. Alternatively, I can share what I have discovered so far for critique.
