Count by 2047 (Skip Counting by 2047s)

Count by 2047

Here we will show you how to count by 2047, discuss counting by 2047 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 2047 matters. To start off, note that Count by 2047 means counting in 2047s, or count by two thousand forty-sevens, and it is also called skip counting by 2047.

How to count by 2047
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 2047, we count 2047, 4094, 6141, 8188, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 2047 or skip counting by 2047, we start with 2047 and then add 2047 to get the next number, and then continue adding 2047 to the previous number to keep counting by 2047, like this:

2047
2047 + 2047 = 4094
4094 + 2047 = 6141
6141 + 2047 = 8188
8188 + 2047 = 10235
...

You can of course skip count by 2047 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 2047 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 2047, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 2047, and so forth.

Count by 2047 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 2047s 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 2047, but don't have the Counting by 2047s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 2047s is that the number increases by 2047.

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 10 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 2047 goes 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 2047.

Why Count by 2047?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 2047 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 thousand forty-seven, you are also creating a list of multiples of 2047 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 2047 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 2047.

When you skip count by 2047, you are also creating a list of numbers that 2047 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 2047 is the same as making the 2047 times table.
