Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 178979-55-0 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,7,8,9,7 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 5 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 178979-55:
(8*1)+(7*7)+(6*8)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*9)+(2*5)+(1*5)=220
220 % 10 = 0
So 178979-55-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
