Count by 552 (Skip Counting by 552s)

Count by 552

Here we will show you how to count by 552, discuss counting by 552 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 552 matters. To start off, note that Count by 552 means counting in 552s, or count by five hundred fifty-twos, and it is also called skip counting by 552.

How to count by 552
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 552, we count 552, 1104, 1656, 2208, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 552 or skip counting by 552, we start with 552 and then add 552 to get the next number, and then continue adding 552 to the previous number to keep counting by 552, like this:

552
552 + 552 = 1104
1104 + 552 = 1656
1656 + 552 = 2208
2208 + 552 = 2760
...

You can of course skip count by 552 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 552 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 552, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 552, and so forth.

Count by 552 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 552s 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 552, but don't have the Counting by 552s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 552s is that the number increases by 552.

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 552 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 552.
