Count by 336 (Skip Counting by 336s)

Count by 336

Here we will show you how to count by 336, discuss counting by 336 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 336 matters. To start off, note that Count by 336 means counting in 336s, or count by three hundred thirty-sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 336.

How to count by 336
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 336, we count 336, 672, 1008, 1344, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 336 or skip counting by 336, we start with 336 and then add 336 to get the next number, and then continue adding 336 to the previous number to keep counting by 336, like this:

336
336 + 336 = 672
672 + 336 = 1008
1008 + 336 = 1344
1344 + 336 = 1680
...

You can of course skip count by 336 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 336 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 336, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 336, and so forth.

Count by 336 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 336s 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 336, but don't have the Counting by 336s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 336s is that the number increases by 336.

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 336 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 336.

Why Count by 336?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 336 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 thirty-six, you are also creating a list of multiples of 336 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 336 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 336.

When you skip count by 336, you are also creating a list of numbers that 336 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 336 is the same as making the 336 times table.
