Answer 1

First create a conda environment if you would like using

conda create -n my_env python=3.6

Here "my_env" is the name of my environment

Then activate your environment using

source activate my_env #(for mac)
conda activate my_env #(for windows)

Once the Environment is active. you can now install the packages you need as follows:I am showing you the packages which i work upon on virtual environment and this will take care of most of your dependencies

conda update conda
conda upgrade conda
conda upgrade anaconda

conda update numpy    
conda install tensorflow

Hope this will solve your problem or else try to upgrade numpy using pip:

pip install --upgrade numpy

Answer 2

You have to run the conda info tensorflow and conda info numba to see each dependencies for each package and then you have to install those package like conda install package=version to fix the problem.
