Products anagram


Since I was a kid, I have  always been amazed by the fact that when multiplying  four or seven by three, the two products obtained have the same digits but in a different position.
3 x 4 = 12
3 x 7 = 21

Now that I'm a little older, not much, it still surprises me that there are numbers that when they are multiplied by two different numbers, its products are a permutation of each other. Apparently you can find a number for each pair of distinct numbers provided that one of these numbers is not a multiple of ten of the other (ie for n and n * 10 ^ m, there is no number that when multiplied by a specific number, its products are not  anagrams).

Two years ago I published  8 sequences based on these facts in the OEIS. The title of each of these sequences is:  a(n) =smallest number such a(n)*n is an anagram of a(n)* X .

For example the sequence for X  equal to four is :
1782, 62937, 54, 1, 2826, 891, 3, 269, 631, 324, 2718, 4311, 3681, 37, 387, 25974, 4401, 477, 45, 48, 256437, 3393, 37, 26523, 3465, 3252, 3699, 34623, 2922, 27972, 27, 271, 284787, 27324, 25971, 263223, 26973, 25974, 2579247, 2514744     (OEIS A175693)

So:

1782   x 1 =      1782    and    1782 x 4 = 7218
62937 x 2 = 125874    and  62937 x 4 = 251748
54        x 3 =       162     and        54 x 4 = 216 
and so on.

Sometimes the same number meets the condition for example:
37 x 13 = 481, 37 x 22 = 814, 37 x 4 = 148

If we write these numbers in a table:

.
123456789
.
1112587410351782142857138613591139671089
.
21258741178262937543651757748919
.
3103517821543641958459345
.
417826293754128268913269631324
.

.
613865175419588919169327594

.
.
389350202879452653384491541355073434873853905116


we can see that even though the values ​​are different, oddly enough, the sum of the values ​​of number one is an anagram to the sum of the values ​​of the number eight: 389350 - 385390
