Can you find a number such that if we multiply that number by 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6, then the resultant number contains same all digits (of course in a different place)

Create the number 24 using (all of) 1,3,4 and 6. You may add, subtract, multiply and divide. Parentheses are free.
You must use each digit only once.
Note that you may not "glue" digits together. Powers are not allowed.
