Remember, this Ayat is just an example but I am having difficulty.
I own the "The Quran - a modern english translation" by Majid Fakhry which is widely loved by MANY Muslims. BUT, when I noticed many Ayats, for example is 2.256: “There is no compulsion in religion” I notice that in other translation it is seen as 2:256 but in my addition (please see image below) it doesn't appear to be 2:256 but seems to be 2:258! (please see image below)
What is going on? or have I made a terrible mistake?)

I suspect it to be a doctored copy, anyway, you need to take your issue to the publisher of that Qur'an that you claim to have. We can't do anything beside advising you to get another authentic translation like of:
Saheeh International
Muhsin Khan
Daryabadi
Pickthall (it is to not beginners)
Preacher
“Do not allow your enemy to define you. Because if you allow yourself to be defined negatively, nothing positive you say about yourself will register.”

Doctored Copy? Clain to have? Please explain, what benefit to I get by lying?
Nevertheless, I have been sent another addition as below and it is correct. An Interpretation of the Qur'an: English Translation of the Meanings - A Bilingual Edition
Fakhry Majid (Translator), Zayid Mahmud (Translator)
