Count by 525 (Skip Counting by 525s)

Count by 525

Here we will show you how to count by 525, discuss counting by 525 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 525 matters. To start off, note that Count by 525 means counting in 525s, or count by five hundred twenty-fives, and it is also called skip counting by 525.

How to count by 525
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 525, we count 525, 1050, 1575, 2100, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 525 or skip counting by 525, we start with 525 and then add 525 to get the next number, and then continue adding 525 to the previous number to keep counting by 525, like this:

525
525 + 525 = 1050
1050 + 525 = 1575
1575 + 525 = 2100
2100 + 525 = 2625
...

You can of course skip count by 525 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 525 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 525, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 525, and so forth.

Count by 525 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 525s 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 525, but don't have the Counting by 525s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 525s is that the number increases by 525.

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 525 goes 5, 0 and 5, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 525.

Why Count by 525?
