Henry Ernest Dudeney/Puzzles and Curious Problems/116 - Transferring the Figures

by : $116$

 * Transferring the Figures
 * If we wish to multiply $571 \, 428$ by $5$ and divide by $4$,
 * we need only transfer the $5$ from the beginning to the end for the correct answer $714 \, 285$.
 * Can you find a number that we can multiply by $4$ and then divide the product by $5$ in the same simple manner,
 * by moving the first figure to the end?
 * Of course $714 \, 285$, just given, would do if we were allowed to transfer from the end to the beginning.
 * But it must be from the beginning to the end!
