Genesis does state how long Adam lived (930 years). Eve is not mentioned, but each of Adams male descendants in the line all the way down to Noah, where the story then continues. (Gen. 5).

It states how long he lived outside the Garden. It does not refer to his age since his creation. His mortal life was 930 but his immortal life is never mentioned in years.

So we cannot say that Adam was 930 from the time God created him. It is the time of his mortal life meaning his time outside the Garden.
