Consider determining how many possible phone numbers are within a particular area code (repeated numbers allowed). is this a combination, a permutation, or neither?

Answer :

ogorwyne

This is neither a permutation nor a combination.

How to solve the question

When we say area code, we can assume that we are talking about the 7 digit codes of a phone number that are possibly added to the particular code of an area

If this is the situation, given the 10 ways we can select the 7 digits. But this  is not a combination given that the groups do not have the same elements. It is not also q permutation because we are not choosing arrangements of the 10 numbers.

To solve this we would have 10 values to the power of 7 which  is

10^7
