Count by 2700 (Skip Counting by 2700s)

Count by 2700

Here we will show you how to count by 2700, discuss counting by 2700 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 2700 matters. To start off, note that Count by 2700 means counting in 2700s, or count by two thousand seven hundreds, and it is also called skip counting by 2700.

How to count by 2700
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 2700, we count 2700, 5400, 8100, 10800, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 2700 or skip counting by 2700, we start with 2700 and then add 2700 to get the next number, and then continue adding 2700 to the previous number to keep counting by 2700, like this:

2700
2700 + 2700 = 5400
5400 + 2700 = 8100
8100 + 2700 = 10800
10800 + 2700 = 13500
...

You can of course skip count by 2700 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 2700 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 2700, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 2700, and so forth.

Count by 2700 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 2700s 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 2700, but don't have the Counting by 2700s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 2700s is that the number increases by 2700.

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 1 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 2700 goes 0 and 0 and so on for as long as you count by 2700.

Why Count by 2700?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 2700 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 seven hundred, you are also creating a list of multiples of 2700 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 2700 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 2700.

When you skip count by 2700, you are also creating a list of numbers that 2700 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 2700 is the same as making the 2700 times table.
