The CAS Registry Mumber 2698-25-1 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,6,9 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 5 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2698-25: (6*2)+(5*6)+(4*9)+(3*8)+(2*2)+(1*5)=111 111 % 10 = 1 So 2698-25-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
