There is no upper limit to numbers, there are some astronomical numbers with more digits than the universe has atoms (See Graham's number) used in math.

On many calculators, the largest number it can calculate is limited by the number of digits your calculator can display. If it can display 12 digits, the largest number you can calculate on it is 999,999,999,999.

The scientific calculators which support scientific notation can usually calculate numbers up to 9.999999 x 1099. Some high-tech ones can go up to 9.99999 x 10999.

On the other hand, I use a professional program used to crunch numbers and the largest number it says it can express is 1.920224672692357 x 10646456887 (or 22147483296). Not that I think I would need to use such a large number any time soon.

Yes, there is. Just as there is no largest number, there is no largest square number. For example, if you calculate the square of 975, you get a number that is (a) larger than 975, and (b) by definition, a square number.

If looking for a percentage answer, you subtract the smallest number from the largest number and the divide the difference by the largest number. Ex: $2000 - $1560 = $440 / $2000 = 22% Variance. Check your work: $2000 x 22% = $440.
