I used a phone number for an apple id that i forgot and there’s no way to get back into my account without entering the phone number, what can i do to reset it? i really need to do a master erase on this iphone.

So i found a phone of mine that had an apple id on it, but the number i used (from an app that gives you a temporary phone number) expired, how do i do a master reset? i have the password to unlock the phone itself and my finger print is on it.

See if anything here helps.  If necessary, you can use account recovery as explained in the link at bottom of the article.
