I am trying to solve a problem about reading a variable in bash with awk.

In bash, I have something like this:

echo "Please, write a number"
read number
awk '{if($1 == "number") print $1,$2}' $1

My file is something like this:

34 hello
56 bye
76 my
81 name
91 is

I would like that when someone write a number, for example 34 in the terminal I will see: 34 hello.

However, this is not happening, and I don't know where is the problem.

Thank you in advance.
