Count by 184 (Skip Counting by 184s)

Count by 184

Here we will show you how to count by 184, discuss counting by 184 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 184 matters. To start off, note that Count by 184 means counting in 184s, or count by one hundred eighty-fours, and it is also called skip counting by 184.

How to count by 184
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 184, we count 184, 368, 552, 736, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 184 or skip counting by 184, we start with 184 and then add 184 to get the next number, and then continue adding 184 to the previous number to keep counting by 184, like this:

184
184 + 184 = 368
368 + 184 = 552
552 + 184 = 736
736 + 184 = 920
...

You can of course skip count by 184 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 184 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 184, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 184, and so forth.

Count by 184 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 184s 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 184, but don't have the Counting by 184s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 184s is that the number increases by 184.

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 184 goes 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 184.

Why Count by 184?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 184 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 eighty-four, you are also creating a list of multiples of 184 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 184 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 184.

When you skip count by 184, you are also creating a list of numbers that 184 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 184 is the same as making the 184 times table.
