<p>mechanism for GTIN-13 is the same for <a href="page.php?w=Global_Location_Number">Global Location Number</a>/GLN.</p>

<p>For instance, the UPC-A barcode for a box of tissues is "036000241457". The last digit is the check digit "7", and if the other numbers are correct then the check digit calculation must produce 7.<br/>
# Add the odd number digits: 0+6+0+2+1+5 = 14.<br/>
# Multiply the result by 3: 14 × 3 = 42.<br/>
# Add the even number digits: 3+0+0+4+4 = 11.<br/>
# Add the two results together: 42 + 11 = 53.<br/>
# To calculate the check</p><p>
