Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5758-63-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,7,5 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5758-63:
(6*5)+(5*7)+(4*5)+(3*8)+(2*6)+(1*3)=124
124 % 10 = 4
So 5758-63-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
