Count by 1007 (Skip Counting by 1007s)

Count by 1007

Here we will show you how to count by 1007, discuss counting by 1007 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 1007 matters. To start off, note that Count by 1007 means counting in 1007s, or count by one thousand sevens, and it is also called skip counting by 1007.

How to count by 1007
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 1007, we count 1007, 2014, 3021, 4028, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 1007 or skip counting by 1007, we start with 1007 and then add 1007 to get the next number, and then continue adding 1007 to the previous number to keep counting by 1007, like this:

1007
1007 + 1007 = 2014
2014 + 1007 = 3021
3021 + 1007 = 4028
4028 + 1007 = 5035
...

You can of course skip count by 1007 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 1007 Chart of the first 100 numbers to get you started.

Looking at the chart above, you will see that the first column has the first ten numbers you get when you skip count by 1007, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 1007, and so forth.

Count by 1007 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 1007s Chart above in 10 rows and 10 columns so you can easily identify patterns.

Skip counting always creates patterns. Figuring out these patterns may help you if want to count by 1007, but don't have the Counting by 1007s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 1007s is that the number increases by 1007.

Furthermore, if you look at each row above, each number in the row has the same last digit (ones place). That means that every tenth number has the same last digit.

If you look down the columns, you will see that the last digit (ones place) repeats itself in blocks of 10 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 1007 goes 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 1007.

Why Count by 1007?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 1007 is important, because it teaches you how the arithmetic operations fit together. Below are some examples of what we mean.

When you count by one thousand seven, you are also creating a list of multiples of 1007 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 1007 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 1007.

When you skip count by 1007, you are also creating a list of numbers that 1007 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 1007 is the same as making the 1007 times table.
