It is because you are supposed to output the square of 'number', but your code outputs the square of 'numb'. 'numb' and 'number' are two different variables. The verification system tests your code by changing the value of number. Because you made and used a completely different variable, the output will not match what the verification system expects. This is why you are failing to verify.
