Once the login password is forgotten , recovering the same login password is not possible as they are always encrypted and saved in keychain access .

But the login password that is kept same as the keychain password can be changed in the recovery mode , for that a Mac user must always have iCloud verification code , Apple ID , iCloud id and its password .

You didn't mentioned are you able to sign in with login password or not ?

Method is there to change the password if you permitt the answer can be posted .
