perplexus.info :: Just Math : A scrambled BEDLAM

A scrambled BEDLAM (Posted on 2017-09-29)

Solve:

AID*LMB = "an anagram of BEDLAM"

Rem: It's none of (ambled, lambed, balmed, beldam)- it is another word of 6 distinct letters, I standing for the highest digit.

Bonus question: Anything special about the product?

anything special? (spoiler)

The product, 142857, is the repeating decimal portion of 1/7.

Which means that it is 999999/7.
