2^(2^(2^2)) which is 2 ^ (2 ^ 4) = 2 (16) = 65,536
2^222
We've had this type of question before with four 1's.
Same answer with four of anything: 2222!
22^22
2^222 is correct. it equals 6.7399866667876599486667537727549e+66
i think tese are just trick questions
they say to find out the highest number so you do 2^222 or 22^22 which is the same
but also the highest number with four 2 is obviously 2222, which you may think is too obvious so hes making the question a double-bluff. like with exp. 7364. the highest number you can make is 7643 not 7^6^4^3 or 76^43 ect. i dint put the answer for th 22^22 ones because im thirteen and i havnt got to that stage of mathmatics yet and i dont even know wat ^ means
It doesn't say JUST 4 2's...so like 2222000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...etc
2222!
=(2222x2221x2220x2219...etc)
The size really depends on how big the paper is.
I think inf^inf. This can be done by placing the four twos on top of each other in a unit rectangle with corners at (0,0) and (1,1) (x and y scales are not necessarily the same) such that the twos touch all four sides of the rectangle. Then perform the following transformations:
- reflect all four twos in the line x=y.
- reflect the 2nd and 4th twos in the line y=0.5
- translate the 3rd and 4th twos by (+0.5,+0.5)
Does that work?

Matt - it's "trickofmind.com" they're all trick questions in some way.
2*2/(2-2)
(((((2222!)!)!)!)!)!
and so on...
42
its the "answer to everything"
22^22
2222 I Think It's A Trick
Sorry
I think of 1 answer
2^(2^22)
As all know,
2^10=1024
2^22=2048^2 ~4000000
So,
answer is around
2^4000000
2^2^22=
17592186044416
2222 -> turn the page upside down and look in a mirror.
5555. =)

Large?
Maybe point your finger at a star.
Trace out 2 2 2 2 going across the sky, going from star to star.
What's the distance from one star to the next? Millions of light years at least.
That's one Large number!

2 = a large
2 1
hi there is a lot of solution one of them and the simplest one is
22/(2-2)=22/0= infinite and you can obtain on this solution by many methods
and if you want a number not infinity with only two operation then its
2^(222!)
could be 2222^2222
