Count by 315 (Skip Counting by 315s)

Count by 315

Here we will show you how to count by 315, discuss counting by 315 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 315 matters. To start off, note that Count by 315 means counting in 315s, or count by three hundred fifteens, and it is also called skip counting by 315.

How to count by 315
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 315, we count 315, 630, 945, 1260, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 315 or skip counting by 315, we start with 315 and then add 315 to get the next number, and then continue adding 315 to the previous number to keep counting by 315, like this:

315
315 + 315 = 630
630 + 315 = 945
945 + 315 = 1260
1260 + 315 = 1575
...

You can of course skip count by 315 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 315 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 315, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 315, and so forth.

Count by 315 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 315s 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 315, but don't have the Counting by 315s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 315s is that the number increases by 315.

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 2 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 315 goes 5, 0 and 5, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 315.

Why Count by 315?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 315 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 fifteen, you are also creating a list of multiples of 315 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 315 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 315.

When you skip count by 315, you are also creating a list of numbers that 315 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 315 is the same as making the 315 times table.
