Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 118267-20-2 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,1,8,2,6 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 118267-20:
(8*1)+(7*1)+(6*8)+(5*2)+(4*6)+(3*7)+(2*2)+(1*0)=122
122 % 10 = 2
So 118267-20-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
