Students' answers were analyzed descriptively on a percentage basis. Some cases that represent the results of the analysis, validated by conducting interviews in the form of confirmation to students. Based on the results and discussion obtained conclusion, that 100% of students at the age of concrete operation stage in this study already understand concept of eternity number. And 13.79% of students at the age of concrete operation stage in this study have had an understanding concept of eternity length.
