    It's what you tell your kids to count to when you want to keep them out of your hair.

    If you don't know the answer, then you just made a case for infinity.

    Your question is erroneous. Infinity has no end, therefore, there cannot be a number just before infinity. To do otherwise implies infinity is finite. Makes no sense.

    Infinity means without end. So, your questions are not really applicable to the definition.

    " The last number you can count up to before you don't ......." Is ONE, after that, it is all duplication and iteration.

    Infinity means something that is endless (like numbers)

    Infinity is forever - on and on - extending beyond measure or comprehension - endless - can be applied mathematically and also in photography. An infinite being is God.

    Google is the biggest number. Beyond that, there aren't any known numbers of anything.

    It's not just a name for a search engine.

  • no ending to a number.

    There are different sizes of infinity. infinity, or ∞, is infinite (duh). The number of infinities is infinity. You can count all your life, infinity won't be any smaller.

    Infinity - 1 = Infinity ------>Algebrecally stupid, but true.

    infinity means there is no end, however, it still still countable, in maths term.
