Count by 393 (Skip Counting by 393s)

Count by 393

Here we will show you how to count by 393, discuss counting by 393 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 393 matters. To start off, note that Count by 393 means counting in 393s, or count by three hundred ninety-threes, and it is also called skip counting by 393.

How to count by 393
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 393, we count 393, 786, 1179, 1572, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 393 or skip counting by 393, we start with 393 and then add 393 to get the next number, and then continue adding 393 to the previous number to keep counting by 393, like this:

393
393 + 393 = 786
786 + 393 = 1179
1179 + 393 = 1572
1572 + 393 = 1965
...

You can of course skip count by 393 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 393 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 393, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 393, and so forth.

Count by 393 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 393s 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 393, but don't have the Counting by 393s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 393s is that the number increases by 393.

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 393 goes 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 393.
