999 is the largest 3-digit number.
9^99 would be a much larger number (approximately 2.95x10^94), with 9^(9^9) being even larger than that (9^387,420,489).
F^(F^F) would be the larger still (15^437,893,890,380,859,375). F is hexadecimal for 15, yet still a single digit.
However, by using tetration (see source) we can get even larger. The number F^^(F^^F) is so large it is not feasible to write it here, or even to calculate it. For example, F^^F would correspond to 15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15^ (15))))))))))))))). This is, of course, a ridiculously large number and there is little other way to represent it.
If we stick to decimal, however, then the largest number would be 9^^(9^^9), still being inconceivably huge.
Of course, any of these answers could be factorialized (ex: F!^^(F!^^F!)!), but why bother when the numbers are so large they cannot be calculated to begin with?

I think it is 999.
This is the largest three digit number.
If it is asked in tricky way then it is 9 power 99 greater than 99 power 9 as 99 power 9 (913517247483640899) is getable in my scientific calculator and9 power 99 is not even getable in my scientific calc.
Hope you like this.

Using three fingers (digits) you can express XI, Roman numerals for 11.

3 assuming your digits are referring to fingers. Have a great day.

It'd be 999. Unless there were something wierd, like exponents.
