Count by 301 (Skip Counting by 301s)

Count by 301

Here we will show you how to count by 301, discuss counting by 301 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 301 matters. To start off, note that Count by 301 means counting in 301s, or count by three hundred ones, and it is also called skip counting by 301.

How to count by 301
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 301, we count 301, 602, 903, 1204, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 301 or skip counting by 301, we start with 301 and then add 301 to get the next number, and then continue adding 301 to the previous number to keep counting by 301, like this:

301
301 + 301 = 602
602 + 301 = 903
903 + 301 = 1204
1204 + 301 = 1505
...

You can of course skip count by 301 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 301 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 301, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 301, and so forth.

Count by 301 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 301s 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 301, but don't have the Counting by 301s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 301s is that the number increases by 301.

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 301 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 301.

Why Count by 301?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 301 is important, because it teaches you how the arithmetic operations fit together. Below are some examples of what we mean.

When you count by three hundred one, you are also creating a list of multiples of 301 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 301 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 301.

When you skip count by 301, you are also creating a list of numbers that 301 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 301 is the same as making the 301 times table.
