Incorrect verification codes for iPhone two-factor authentication

*This phone number is incorrect. Please enter a phone number that you use to receive verification codes for two-factor authentication.


when it says (Confirm your phone number

Enter the phone number that you use with your Apple ID.)I put in all phone numbers that I can use but they all say this response*

Maybe I need to get two-FA on one of the phones?

I'm not sure what to do


(this is all because I'm trying to get my password that I've forgotten)

You are sign in here .  .  .  with your Apple ID & Password.

Your Apple ID is the personal account you use with all Apple products and services. It includes the email address and password you use to sign in, as well as the contact, payment, and security details that you use with Apple.

You can’t merge multiple Apple ID accounts.

 

What happens when you use the same Apple ID & Password that you use to sign in here?
