Passing an array to another array method

I need to create 2 methods. Method 1 (CreateArray) shall allow the user to enter the length of an array they would like to create and then enter the value for each element. Method 2 (PrintArray) prints the array created in Method 1.

Both methods work fine on a standalone basis. However, I don't know how to pass CreateArray method to PrintArray method. 

class Calculation
{
    public int[] CreateArray (int a)
    {
        int count = 1;
        int[] CreateArray = new int[a];
        for (int i = 0; i < CreateArray.Length; i++)
        {
            Console.Write($"{count}.) Enter a value - ");
            int userInput = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
            CreateArray[i] = userInput;
            count++;
        }
        return CreateArray;
    }

    public void PrintArray(int[] numbers)
    {
        int elementNum = 1;
        for (int i = 0; i < numbers.Length; i++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"{elementNum}.) {numbers[i]}");
            elementNum++;
        }
    }
}

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.Write("Enter the Length of an array you would like to create: ");
        int arrayLength = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());

        Calculation calc = new Calculation();
        calc.CreateArray(arrayLength);

    }
}

You need to store the results of "calc.CreateArray(arrayLength);" in a local variable and pass it to PrintArray():

int[] newArray = calc.CreateArray(arrayLength);
calc.PrintArray(newArray);
