Count by 1060

Here we will show you how to count by 1060, discuss counting by 1060 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 1060 matters. To start off, note that Count by 1060 means counting in 1060s, or count by one thousand sixties, and it is also called skip counting by 1060.

How to count by 1060
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 1060, we count 1060, 2120, 3180, 4240, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 1060 or skip counting by 1060, we start with 1060 and then add 1060 to get the next number, and then continue adding 1060 to the previous number to keep counting by 1060, like this:

1060
1060 + 1060 = 2120
2120 + 1060 = 3180
3180 + 1060 = 4240
4240 + 1060 = 5300
...

You can of course skip count by 1060 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 1060 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 1060, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 1060, and so forth.

We organized the Skip Counting by 1060s Chart above in 10 rows and 10 columns so you can easily identify patterns.

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 1 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 1060 goes 0 and 0 and so on for as long as you count by 1060.
