That's a rather confusing question.

The largest number for latitude is 90° north or south, and would be the geographic north and south poles respectively.

The largest number for longitude is 180° east or west (same place) and is opposite Greenwich, England. Keep in mind that the 180° longitude line is half the circumference of the earth, reaching all the way from the North Pole to the South Pole just west of Kauai in the Pacific Ocean.

Just look at a globe or an atlas, it would be easy to see for yourself.

The largest latitudes are 90 degrees north and south, at the poles. The largest numerical longitude is 180 degrees east or west, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; the International Date Line follows it part way.

The Prime Meridien is 0 degrees and runs through Greenwich England - exactly opposite that in far eastern China is 180 degrees (the highest) and highest latitude is either the North or South pole - each 90 degrees

If I understand the question correctly- the lattitude with the largest circumference is the equator. All longitude lines have the same circumference.
