(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction. All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are $200 m$ apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using $1\ cm = 200 \ m$, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines. There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North-South direction and another in the East-West direction. Cross street is referred to in this manner: If the 2nd street running in the North-South direction and $5th$ in the East-West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street $(2, 5)$. Using this convention, find: how many cross - streets can be referred to as $(4, 3).$
