The CAS Registry Mumber 26040-71-1 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,6,0,4 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 1 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 26040-71: (7*2)+(6*6)+(5*0)+(4*4)+(3*0)+(2*7)+(1*1)=81 81 % 10 = 1 So 26040-71-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
