The CAS Registry Mumber 2973-74-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,9,7 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 4 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2973-74: (6*2)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*3)+(2*7)+(1*4)=112 112 % 10 = 2 So 2973-74-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
