# --description--

Consider the number 142857. We can right-rotate this number by moving the last digit (7) to the front of it, giving us 714285.

It can be verified that 714285=5×142857.

This demonstrates an unusual property of 142857: it is a divisor of its right-rotation.

Find the last 5 digits of the sum of all integers n, 10 &lt; n &lt; 10100, that have this property.

# --hints--

`euler168()` should return 59206.

```js
assert.strictEqual(euler168(), 59206);
```

# --seed--

## --seed-contents--

```js
function euler168() {

  return true;
}

euler168();
```

# --solutions--

```js
// solution required
```
