Check Digit Verification of cas no

The CAS Registry Mumber 2979-87-5 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 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2979-87:
(6*2)+(5*9)+(4*7)+(3*9)+(2*8)+(1*7)=135
135 % 10 = 5
So 2979-87-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
