A positive integer $a$ is said to [i]reduce[/i] to a positive integer $b$ if when dividing $a$ by its units digits the result is $b$. For example, 2015 reduces to $\frac{2015}{5} = 403$. Find all the positive integers that become 1 after some amount of reductions. For example, 12 is one such number because 12 reduces to 6 and 6 reduces to 1.

Given is a natural number $n > 5$. On a circular strip of paper is written a sequence of zeros and ones. For each sequence $w$ of $n$ zeros and ones we count the number of ways to cut out a fragment from the strip on which is written $w$. It turned out that the largest number $M$ is achieved for the sequence $11 00...0$ ($n-2$ zeros) and the smallest - for the sequence $00...011$ ($n-2$ zeros). Prove that there is another sequence of $n$ zeros and ones that occurs exactly $M$ times.
