Count by 324 (Skip Counting by 324s)

Count by 324

Here we will show you how to count by 324, discuss counting by 324 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 324 matters. To start off, note that Count by 324 means counting in 324s, or count by three hundred twenty-fours, and it is also called skip counting by 324.

How to count by 324
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 324, we count 324, 648, 972, 1296, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 324 or skip counting by 324, we start with 324 and then add 324 to get the next number, and then continue adding 324 to the previous number to keep counting by 324, like this:

324
324 + 324 = 648
648 + 324 = 972
972 + 324 = 1296
1296 + 324 = 1620
...

You can of course skip count by 324 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 324 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 324, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 324, and so forth.

Count by 324 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 324s 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 324, but don't have the Counting by 324s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 324s is that the number increases by 324.

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 324 goes 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 324.

Why Count by 324?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 324 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 twenty-four, you are also creating a list of multiples of 324 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 324 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 324.

When you skip count by 324, you are also creating a list of numbers that 324 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 324 is the same as making the 324 times table.
