Keep on stretching the number by adding zeroes or continent account but we notice that there is no end to The counting.....computers count to Trillions......but rather....it goes on on and on....s-xillions and on.......it never ends.......

Hey FRIEND...

FOR Justifying the given number let's assume that there is a largest Natural or whole number which is x

Now we know that we can add or subtract or multiply or divide any WHOLE number or NATURAL

So let's add 1 to the largest Natural or whole number which is x as Natural numbers(N) or whole numbers(W) follow closed property under addition, i.e IF a,b are N or W then a + b = c where c is also a N or W

∴x + 1

∵x+1 > x

∴The new largest N or W is x+1

Now we can repeat this process endlessly, which means that the largest N or W doesn't exist

HENCE PROVED...


HOPE IT HELPS...!!!


NerdyGamer013: One correction in 1st sentence it should be for justifying the given statement and not number
