Count by 202 (Skip Counting by 202s)

Count by 202

Here we will show you how to count by 202, discuss counting by 202 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 202 matters. To start off, note that Count by 202 means counting in 202s, or count by two hundred twos, and it is also called skip counting by 202.

How to count by 202
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 202, we count 202, 404, 606, 808, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 202 or skip counting by 202, we start with 202 and then add 202 to get the next number, and then continue adding 202 to the previous number to keep counting by 202, like this:

202
202 + 202 = 404
404 + 202 = 606
606 + 202 = 808
808 + 202 = 1010
...

You can of course skip count by 202 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 202 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 202, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 202, and so forth.

Count by 202 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 202s 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 202, but don't have the Counting by 202s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 202s is that the number increases by 202.

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 202 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 202.

Why Count by 202?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 202 is important, because it teaches you how the arithmetic operations fit together. Below are some examples of what we mean.

When you count by two hundred two, you are also creating a list of multiples of 202 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 202 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 202.

When you skip count by 202, you are also creating a list of numbers that 202 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 202 is the same as making the 202 times table.
