Count by 442 (Skip Counting by 442s)

Count by 442

Here we will show you how to count by 442, discuss counting by 442 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 442 matters. To start off, note that Count by 442 means counting in 442s, or count by four hundred forty-twos, and it is also called skip counting by 442.

How to count by 442
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 442, we count 442, 884, 1326, 1768, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 442 or skip counting by 442, we start with 442 and then add 442 to get the next number, and then continue adding 442 to the previous number to keep counting by 442, like this:

442
442 + 442 = 884
884 + 442 = 1326
1326 + 442 = 1768
1768 + 442 = 2210
...

You can of course skip count by 442 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 442 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 442, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 442, and so forth.

Count by 442 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 442s 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 442, but don't have the Counting by 442s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 442s is that the number increases by 442.

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 442 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 442.
