Count by 146 (Skip Counting by 146s)

Count by 146

Here we will show you how to count by 146, discuss counting by 146 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 146 matters. To start off, note that Count by 146 means counting in 146s, or count by one hundred forty-sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 146.

How to count by 146
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 146, we count 146, 292, 438, 584, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 146 or skip counting by 146, we start with 146 and then add 146 to get the next number, and then continue adding 146 to the previous number to keep counting by 146, like this:

146
146 + 146 = 292
292 + 146 = 438
438 + 146 = 584
584 + 146 = 730
...

You can of course skip count by 146 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 146 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 146, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 146, and so forth.

Count by 146 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 146s 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 146, but don't have the Counting by 146s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 146s is that the number increases by 146.

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 146 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 146.

Why Count by 146?

When you count by one hundred forty-six, you are also creating a list of multiples of 146 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 146 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 146.

When you skip count by 146, you are also creating a list of numbers that 146 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 146 is the same as making the 146 times table.
