Each two-digit natural number is [i]assigned [/i] a digit as follows: Its digits are multiplied. If the result is a digit, this is the assigned digit. If the result is a two-digit number, these two figures are multiplied, and if the result is a digit, this is the assigned digit. Otherwise, the operation is repeated. For example, the digit assigned to $32$ is $6$ since $3 \times = 6$; the digit assigned to $93$ is $4$ since $9 \times 3 = 27$, $2 \times 7 = 14$, $1 \times 4 = 4$. Find all the two-digit numbers that are assigned $8$.
