hi melissa ,simple mistake for a newbie ,the 18-55mm on your lens equates to its focal length i.e from 18mm wide angle to 55mm zoomed out .what you should have ordered ( but there not much good anyway) is your filter thread size ,very easy to find if you take off your lens cap the thread size will be stamped inside .
if in doubt ask on here before buying and explain that your new to photography and nikons ,be careful buying lenses for your camera as a lot of older lenses will not work on the d3100 as it has no internal motor to drive the focus .
any lens you buy must be suffixed by AFS
