Question

What are the numbers for on this telephone?

Community Answer

The number one in a phone number connects you to the phone line network if it's a long distance call. The first set of three numbers connects you to the area of the country you are trying to reach. The second set of three numbers connects you to the section within the area code you need to reach, and the third set of four numbers is the phone number of the party's phone that is within the area.
