Jim wants to call his friend Bob. Bob's Phone number is 976-6419. Jim dialed this number perfectly but then ended up calling the wrong house. He tried again and dialed the number perfectly. Once again his call didn't go through, in fact his call never went through to Bob.
Why couldn't Jim call Bob?
My guess is that Jim and Bob live in different area codes, and so while locally Bob's number may be 976-6419, Jim would actually have to dial a ten-or-eleven digit number ending in 976-6419, such as (212)-976-6419 or 1-(212)-976-6419.
