Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 8007-87-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 8,0,0 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 8007-87:
(6*8)+(5*0)+(4*0)+(3*7)+(2*8)+(1*7)=92
92 % 10 = 2
So 8007-87-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
