God you are so retarded. If you take 16 and add 1 what do you get? A number that is greater than 16. Therefore there are 16+1 numbers. If you repeat this with the number 16+1 you get another number. Since this process can be repeated ad infinitum there are infinitely man numbers.

It's a question with no answer. Suppose 3 was the largest natural number. Then the natural numbers would be 0, 1, 2, and 3. That's not 0 numbers, it's not 1 number, it's not 2 numbers, and it's not 3 numbers. There is no number for how many numbers there are.

The largest number is limited by the amount of matter and energy in the universe. If you used every particle and all the energy in the universe to store a single number in the most efficient way possible that is the largest number and you will never have a larger one.

1. The Zero
2. Infinitesimal (forever approaching, but never reaching zero)
3. All finite numbers between the infinitesimal and the infinite (including all fractional, irrational and trancendental numbers)
4. Infinite (forever approaching, but never reaching infinity)
5. The Infinity

There are 5. The previous statement is false.
