Count by 2601 (Skip Counting by 2601s)

Count by 2601

Here we will show you how to count by 2601, discuss counting by 2601 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 2601 matters. To start off, note that Count by 2601 means counting in 2601s, or count by two thousand six hundred ones, and it is also called skip counting by 2601.

How to count by 2601
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 2601, we count 2601, 5202, 7803, 10404, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 2601 or skip counting by 2601, we start with 2601 and then add 2601 to get the next number, and then continue adding 2601 to the previous number to keep counting by 2601, like this:

2601
2601 + 2601 = 5202
5202 + 2601 = 7803
7803 + 2601 = 10404
10404 + 2601 = 13005
...

You can of course skip count by 2601 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 2601 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 2601, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 2601, and so forth.

Count by 2601 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 2601s 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 2601, but don't have the Counting by 2601s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 2601s is that the number increases by 2601.

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 2601 goes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0 and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 2601.

Why Count by 2601?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 2601 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 six hundred one, you are also creating a list of multiples of 2601 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 2601 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 2601.

When you skip count by 2601, you are also creating a list of numbers that 2601 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 2601 is the same as making the 2601 times table.
