So far the largest one I know is the yottabyte
There are 8 bits in a byte, so a two byte integer would be 16 bits. The largest 16 bit integer possible would be 11111111111111112, which is 65535 in base 10.
If the byte represents a signed number, values commonly go from minus 128 to plus 127. If the byte represents an unsigned number, values commonly go from 0 to 255.
The largest hex number that can be represented in bytes depends on the number of bytes being considered. Since one byte consists of 8 bits, the maximum value for one byte is 255 in decimal, which is represented as FF in hexadecimal. For multiple bytes, the largest hex number is determined by the number of bytes times 2 (since each byte is represented by two hex characters). For example, for 4 bytes, the largest hex number is FFFFFFFF.
11111111; 255 or 1+2+4+8+16+32+64+128=255 Answer 255 There are 8 bits in a byte when all are set to zero (turned off) then the value is 0. When all of the bits in a byte are set to 1 (turned on) you get the largest value that a byte holds which is 255.
The largest number which can be stored in an 8 bit memory byte is 255 . The largest prime number below 255 is 251.
There are 8 bits in a byte, so a two byte integer would be 16 bits. The largest 16 bit integer possible would be 11111111111111112, which is 65535 in base 10.
The largest unit of memory is a Yoda Byte. :)

gigabyte
256
no, there are many other larger units
255
255 is the largest decimal number. 1 byte (8 bits) can store 256 *values* (0-255).
1 byte
It is not possible. A Byte is 8 bits, the largest possible 8 bit number is '11111111' which is only 255 (in normal decimal numbers).
If the byte represents a signed number, values commonly go from minus 128 to plus 127. If the byte represents an unsigned number, values commonly go from 0 to 255.
If the architecture allows each individual byte to be adressed then there are 4,000,000 possible addresses ranging from 0 to 3,999,999. So the largest address is 3,999,999 which is 3D08FF in hexadecimal representation
