Chunking the numbers into smaller units can help Telo remember the telephone number. This means grouping the digits into smaller sets that are easier to remember. For example, he could remember the first three digits as the area code, the next three digits as the prefix, and the last four digits as the line number. This can be easier to remember than trying to remember ten individual digits in a row.
