I want to change the font size for the chapter title and chapter number.



My code in part is as below.



I want the font for the chapter to be greater than the one achieved through Huge. Is there any way to do that for the document class I am using?



documentclass[a4paper,12pt,oneside]{report}
usepackage[left=3.81cm,right=2.54cm,top=2.54cm,bottom=2.54cm]{geometry}

usepackage{sectsty}

chapternumberfont{Huge}
newcommand{chapfnt}{fontsize{300}{250}}
newcommand{secfnt}{fontsize{14}{17}}
newcommand{ssecfnt}{fontsize{12}{14}}
chaptertitlefont{Huge}


My current font size looks like this:

          fontsize{<size>}{<baseline skip>} should be followed by selectfont in order to select the font:



          enter image description here



          documentclass{report}

          usepackage{sectsty,lmodern}

          begin{document}

          chapter{A chapter}

          Lorem ipsum ldots

          chapternumberfont{fontsize{35pt}{32pt}selectfont}
          chaptertitlefont{fontsize{38pt}{35pt}selectfont}

          chapter{A chapter}

          Lorem ipsum ldots

          end{document}
