Different rules are applied to form 3-digit area codes and 10-digit phone numbers.

The number of different ways an event can occur is counted and multiplied using the given condition.

Here, two rules are provided for writing three digits:

Rule 1: The first digit is to be chosen from 2-9.

Rule 2: The second and third digits are to be chosen from 0-9.

Area code (using rule 1 and rule 2):

The number of digits to choose from for the first digit of the area code = 8.

The number of digits to choose from for the second digit of the area code = 10.

The number of digits to choose from for the third digit of the area code = 10.

The total number of possible ways to write the area code:

$8脳10脳10=800$

Therefore, the number of different area codes possible is equal to 800.

Phone number:

As the same two rules apply to the three digits of the phone number preceding the last four digits, the total number of ways to write those three digits is equal to 800.

The number of ways to write the first three digits = 800.

For the remaining four digits, the total number of digits to choose from (0-9) = 10.

The number of ways to write the remaining four digits:

$10脳10脳10脳10=10000$

Thus, the total number of possible phone numbers is:

$800脳800脳10000=6400000000$

Therefore, the number of different phone numbers possible is equal to 6,400,000,000.

Since the combined population of the US and Canada has 400,000,000 people, while the possible number of phone numbers is greater,there are sufficient phone numbers available for both countries.
