%N A350185 Numbers of multiplicative persistence 6 which are themselves the product of digits of a number.
%C A350185 The multiplicative persistence of a number mp(n) is the number of times the product of digits function p(n) must be applied to reach a single digit, i.e., A031346(n).
%C A350185 The product of digits function partitions all numbers into equivalence classes. There is a one-to-one correspondence between values in this sequence and equivalence classes of numbers with multiplicative persistence 7.
%C A350185 There are infinitely many numbers with mp of 1 to 11, but the classes of numbers (p(n)) are postulated to be finite for sequences A350181....
%C A350185 Equivalently:
%C A350185 This sequence consists of the numbers A007954(k) such that A031346(k) = 7,
%C A350185 These are the numbers k in A002473 such that A031346(k) = 6,
%C A350185 Or:
%C A350185 - they factor into powers of 2, 3, 5 and 7 exclusively.
%C A350185 - p(n) goes to a single digit in 6 steps.
%C A350185 Postulated to be finite and complete.
%C A350185 a(13), if it exists, is > 10^20000, and likely > 10^80000.

%e A350185 27648 is in sequence because:
%e A350185 - 27648 goes to a single digit in 6 steps: p(27648)=2688, p(2688)=768, p(768)=336, p(336)=54, p(54)=20, p(20)=0.
%e A350185 - p(338688) = p(168889) = 27648, etc.
