How to change the phone number on my Apple ID account?

I have applied to change the phone number in the apple id on this account. I want to speed up the process of recovering it for the information I have the password but the phone number in the two-factor authentication is lost so I added my new phone number

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

If you can get a code and sign in, you need to change/add the number on your Apple ID. Look in the Security section when signed in online. You may have to add the new number before you can remove the old number. After the change, allow up to 24 hours for the change to sync. Before trying to make the change, sign out of Messages/FaceTime on all devices/computers.
