Work Step by Step
The number of ways in which a series of successive things can occur is found by multiplying the number of ways in which each thing can occur.

the 2nd digit,
the 3rd digit,
the 4th digit,

(the answer to each successive question is 10, and the total is
$10^{5}=10,000$ zip codes )
Makes sense.
