Hey mcj548!

I see you're trying to change which phone number is registered to your iPad. This excerpt should have the details you need to get that done:

Turn your phone number on or off for your iPad or iPod touch

After you set up your phone number, you can turn it on or off for Messages and FaceTime on your iPad or iPod touch.

  1. For Messages, go to Settings > Messages and make sure that iMessage is on. If asked, sign in with the Apple ID you're using with Messages and FaceTime on your iPhone. Then tap Send & Receive.
  2. For FaceTime, go to Settings > FaceTime. If asked, sign in with the Apple ID you're using with Messages and FaceTime on your iPhone.
  3. Turn your phone number on or off:
