Count by 233 (Skip Counting by 233s)

Count by 233

Here we will show you how to count by 233, discuss counting by 233 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 233 matters. To start off, note that Count by 233 means counting in 233s, or count by two hundred thirty-threes, and it is also called skip counting by 233.

How to count by 233
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 233, we count 233, 466, 699, 932, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 233 or skip counting by 233, we start with 233 and then add 233 to get the next number, and then continue adding 233 to the previous number to keep counting by 233, like this:

233
233 + 233 = 466
466 + 233 = 699
699 + 233 = 932
932 + 233 = 1165
...

You can of course skip count by 233 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 233 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 233, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 233, and so forth.

Count by 233 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 233s 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 233, but don't have the Counting by 233s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 233s is that the number increases by 233.

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 233 goes 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 233.

Why Count by 233?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 233 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 thirty-three, you are also creating a list of multiples of 233 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 233 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 233.

When you skip count by 233, you are also creating a list of numbers that 233 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 233 is the same as making the 233 times table.
