10-8=2
G IV.​ Answer: 2
TTh 2:30-4:00 PM
5.​ EAN-13: Find the check digit for the
ASSIGNMENT 7 - MATHEMATICAL SYSTEMS EAN-13 code: 400638133393.
I.​ Given:
1.​ Modular addition: (17 + 25) mod 12 Digits: 4,0,0,6,3,8,1,3,3,3,9,3
I.​ Given: II.​ Required: check digit
17 + 25 III.​ Solution:
Modulus = 12 (4+0+3+1+3+9)+((0+6+8+3+3+3)*3)=89
II.​ Required: Value of (17 + 25) mod 12 89 mod 10 = 89/10 = 8 remainder 9
III.​ Solution: 10-9=1
17 + 25 = 42 IV.​ Answer: 1
42 mod 12 = 42/12 = 3 remainder 6
IV.​ Answer: 6 6.​ ISBN-10: Find the check digit for the
ISBN-10: 030640615?
2.​ Modular multiplication: (7 x 8) mod 10 I.​ Given:
I.​ Given: Digits: 0,3,0,6,4,0,6,1,5
7×8 II.​ Required: check digit
Modulus = 10 III.​ Solution:
II.​ Required: Value of (7 × 8) mod 10 (1*0)+(2*3)+(3*0)+(4*6)+(5*4)+(6*0)+
III.​ Solution: (7*6)+(8*1)+(9*5)
7*8 = 56 = 0+6+0+24+20+0+42+8+45=145
56/10 = 5 remainder 6 145 mod 11 = 145/11 = 13 remainder 2
IV.​ Answer: 6 IV.​ Answer: 2

3.​ Modular multiplication: A clock resets 7.​ USPS: A ZIP code is 53217. Using the USPS
every 12 hours. If an event repeats every POSTNET system, find the check digit that
5 hours, what time will it occur after 7 must be added to the ZIP code.
cycles, starting from 0? I.​ Given:
I.​ Given: ZIP code digits: 5, 3, 2, 1, 7
Cycle length = 5 hours II.​ Required: check digit
Number of cycles = 7 III.​ Solution:
Modulus = 12 5+3+2+1+7=18
II.​ Required: Time after 7 cycles (mod 12) 18 mod 10 = 18/10= 1 remainder 8
III.​ Solution: 10-8=2
5*7 = 35 IV.​ Answer: 2
35 mod 12 = 35/12 = 2 remainder 11
IV.​ Answer: 11 o’clock

4.​ UPC: A product has the first 11 digits of its


UPC code as 03600029145. Find the check
digit.
I.​ Given:
Digits: 0,3,6,0,0,0,2,9,1,4,5
II.​ Required: check digit
III.​ Solution:
((0+6+0+2+1+5)*3)+(3+0+0+9+4)=58
58 mod 10 = 58/10 = 5 remainder 8
