Cannot update apple store and other apple apps

When I try to update my apple store, garage band, and other apps, the message pops up and says that the update is not available for this ID and it was purchased with a different ID. I never had different accounts or anything like that. It is very annoying that I cannot update a bunch of apps. What do I need to do?

iPhone XR, iOS 13

I just deleted apps that could not update, I clicked and hold the icon and clicked “x” to delete them, and went to app store and downloaded them again. The notifications pops up saying that the app has been previously downloaded and just need the update or something like that. I clicked “OK”. That resolved my problem.
