Default In series of 10 digit #s, how can I exclude 1st 3 digits in each?

I have a series of 900 ten digit numbers. All of the numbers start with the
same 3 digits and I need to omit those (leaving just the last 7 digits). Can
this be done without have to manually delete the 1st 3 digits on each?

I appreciate you taking the time to read this and your assistance.

=RIGHT(A1,7) if you want them as text
=--RIGHT(A1,7) if you want them as numbers

looking for. I appreciate your help.
