Count by 112 (Skip Counting by 112s)

Count by 112

Here we will show you how to count by 112, discuss counting by 112 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 112 matters. To start off, note that Count by 112 means counting in 112s, or count by one hundred twelves, and it is also called skip counting by 112.

How to count by 112
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 112, we count 112, 224, 336, 448, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 112 or skip counting by 112, we start with 112 and then add 112 to get the next number, and then continue adding 112 to the previous number to keep counting by 112, like this:

112
112 + 112 = 224
224 + 112 = 336
336 + 112 = 448
448 + 112 = 560
...

You can of course skip count by 112 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 112 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 112, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 112, and so forth.

Count by 112 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 112s 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 112, but don't have the Counting by 112s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 112s is that the number increases by 112.

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 5 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 112 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 112.

Why Count by 112?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 112 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 hundred twelve, you are also creating a list of multiples of 112 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 112 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 112.

When you skip count by 112, you are also creating a list of numbers that 112 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 112 is the same as making the 112 times table.
