How do I see a whole phone number in my contacts?

I want to give someone a phone number for one of my contacts. When I pull up the info on my iPhone, I only see the area code and the first three numbers. How do I see the whole phone number? I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 9.2

iPhone 5, iOS 9.2

Sounds like you either have the screen zoomed in, or you have the text size larger than you can see. You can tap on the contact, then go to Edit in the upper right corner and then tap on the number to scroll through it. An alternative is to select the number, then copy it and paste it into a Note. That should display the entire number for you.
