26. What 5-digit number has the following features:

If we put the numeral 1 at the beginning, we get a number three times smaller than if
we put the numeral 1 at the end of the number?
In other words, if you think the answer is the number 34567, then you want the
number 134567 to be one third of 345671, but it isn't, so what's the number?
