Check the validity of the DEA number AP1857397
|
It has 2 letter and 7 digits
Sum of 1,3,5 digits = 9 (sum1) sum of 2,4,6 digits = 24 24 X 2 = 48 (sum 2) 48+9 = 57 (sum3) the 7th digit is a 7 The number is valid. |

What is the formula for checking the validity of a DEA number?
|
DEA # should contain 2 letters & 7 #.
Add digits 1,3 & 5 to get sum 1 Add digits 2,4 & 6 & multiply x2 this is sum 2. Add sum 1 & 2 this is sum 3. In a valid DEA #, the 7th digit will be the 2nd digit of sum 3. If not, the DEA # is not valid. |
