Morphology
immeasurably = immeasurable (transparent) = im + measure + able + ly
Formed by adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ly' to 'immeasurable', so the meaning follows regularly from 'immeasurable' (not + measurable).
Etymology
Immeasurably comes from the parts im- meaning 'not' and measure meaning 'to find size or amount'. So, it describes something so big or great you cannot measure, which is why it means 'extremely'.
