Exact answers for huge numbers

Ordinary calculators and spreadsheets switch to approximate floating-point numbers after about 15 digits. A big number calculator keeps every digit, so you can add, subtract, multiply, divide, raise to powers, take remainders, find the GCF and compute factorials of enormous integers exactly.

This matters in number theory, cryptography, puzzles and checking large factorials or powers where every digit counts.

How it is calculated

Whole-number arithmetic with no rounding
n! = n × (n − 1) × … × 2 × 1
Division gives a quotient and a remainder

How big is big?

Numbers grow astonishingly fast. Factorials and powers reach hundreds of digits after only a few steps, which is exactly where ordinary calculators stop being exact.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a limit on the size?

Inputs can be very long, but results are limited to a size your browser can show comfortably, and factorials above 3,000 are refused.

Does it work with decimals?

No, this tool works with whole numbers only so that every result is exact. Use the scientific notation calculator for decimals.

Why do normal calculators lose digits?

They store numbers in 64-bit floating point, which holds only about 15 to 17 significant digits.

What does mod mean?

A mod B is the remainder after dividing A by B. It is widely used in cryptography and programming.
