Count by 304 (Skip Counting by 304s)

Count by 304

Here we will show you how to count by 304, discuss counting by 304 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 304 matters. To start off, note that Count by 304 means counting in 304s, or count by three hundred fours, and it is also called skip counting by 304.

How to count by 304
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 304, we count 304, 608, 912, 1216, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 304 or skip counting by 304, we start with 304 and then add 304 to get the next number, and then continue adding 304 to the previous number to keep counting by 304, like this:

304
304 + 304 = 608
608 + 304 = 912
912 + 304 = 1216
1216 + 304 = 1520
...

You can of course skip count by 304 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 304 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 304, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 304, and so forth.

Count by 304 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 304s 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 304, but don't have the Counting by 304s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 304s is that the number increases by 304.

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 5 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 304 goes 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 304.

Why Count by 304?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 304 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 four, you are also creating a list of multiples of 304 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 304 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 304.

When you skip count by 304, you are also creating a list of numbers that 304 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 304 is the same as making the 304 times table.
