AWS user management. Creation of user, MFA, etc

I need help in understanding the AWS IAM further.  

(1) I have created an account. I can login using the root user email. However, it always sends me an email saying there was an unusual activity in your account, please use the below "verification code" to complete your login. How can I login without getting this type of email. Can I just login using the root user email and a password. How to setup a MFA for this root user account login. How to setup an Alias for this account.  

(2) After logging into the account, I used IAM to create a new user. I assigned this user Admin role, . . . How can I login using this user. Where is the account number for this user. Because when you try to login, the login page wants the account number, . . . 

So, I need to learn about the IAM use and to create and manage users in the account, can you help me with this. When can you do it and how much will it cost. You can specify the time, I want to minimize the cost because I dont have a job. 

Thanks

Answer to your 2nd question When you create a new IAM user in AWS, you receive a sign-in link. When you click on that link, the Account ID (associated with the account where the IAM user was created) is automatically pre-filled. You only need to enter your username and password to log in.
