The CAS Registry Mumber 98-20-4 includes 5 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 2 digits, 9 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 0 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 98-20: (4*9)+(3*8)+(2*2)+(1*0)=64 64 % 10 = 4 So 98-20-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
