Courses Plus Student 5,154 PointsCan anyone find my errors because I can't do that
phoneNumbers is array of 10 digit phone numbers, where the first three digits, in parentheses, are area codes. Using reduce, return the total phone numbers with a 503 area code. Store the total in the variable numberOf503.
const phoneNumbers = ["(503) 123-4567", "(646) 123-4567", "(503) 987-6543", "(503) 234-5678", "(212) 123-4567", "(416) 123-4567"];
let numberOf503;
numberOf503 = numberOf503.reduce((count, number) => {
if(number[0] === '503'){
return count;
}
}, 0);
// numberOf503 should be: 3
// Write your code below

let numberOf503;
numberOf503 = phoneNumbers.reduce((total, phoneNumberString) => {
if (phoneNumberString.slice(1, 4) === "503") {
total++;
}
return total;
}, 0);

11,314 PointsYou choose, what's inside the two numbers, so now this equal to '503'. Zero character is the "(". Fourth character is the ")". Inside the two characters you find the "503". When you write the last number, always add one. Hope this help.
