Y = 0 or 1

Z = 0, 1, 2, 鈥�, or 9

It is to be determined how many area codes were possible before 1995.

02

Step 2. Calculation.

For X there are 8 ways to be selected.

For Y there are 2 ways to be selected.

For Z there are 10 ways to be selected.

By the Fundamental Counting Principle, there are 8脳2脳10=160 different ways to select the 3-digit area code.

03

Step 3. Conclusion.

Hence, the number of possible area codes before 1995 is 160.
