I - Switch the current number by a positive multiple of the current number.
II - Switch the current number by a number with the same digits of the current number, but the digits are written in another order(leading zeros are allowed). For instance, if the current number is $2022$, Olive can write any of the following numbers $222,2202,2220$.
Determine all the positive integers $N$, such that, Olive can write the number $1$ after a finite quantity of rounds.
