The CAS Registry Mumber 996-99-6 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 9,9 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 9 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 996-99: (5*9)+(4*9)+(3*6)+(2*9)+(1*9)=126 126 % 10 = 6 So 996-99-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
