1) In posts table we have "ID", "name", "tag_id"

2) In tags table we have "ID", "name"

Here, we will find records that have ID "1" from "tag_id" column of posts table.

$search_id = 1;
$data = \DB::table("posts")
    ->select("posts.*")
    ->whereRaw("find_in_set('".$search_id."',posts.tag_id)")
    ->get();
