How is sound stored and transmitted digitally?

When storing images the picture is separated into pixels, and the pixels’ colors can be defined with the RGB scale. So the computer can digitally store and send images as numbers. How does it do the same with sound files?

As far as I understood it is pretty similar to what you described with an image. With images you have the RGB to display all your colors. In sound these are all various frequencies. And instead of aligning them in 2D what you’d do in a picture you align the frequencies in a series/time. That’s how I understood it but by all means no expert in this field
