Count by 604 (Skip Counting by 604s)

Count by 604

Here we will show you how to count by 604, discuss counting by 604 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 604 matters. To start off, note that Count by 604 means counting in 604s, or count by six hundred fours, and it is also called skip counting by 604.

How to count by 604
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 604, we count 604, 1208, 1812, 2416, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 604 or skip counting by 604, we start with 604 and then add 604 to get the next number, and then continue adding 604 to the previous number to keep counting by 604, like this:

604
604 + 604 = 1208
1208 + 604 = 1812
1812 + 604 = 2416
2416 + 604 = 3020
...

You can of course skip count by 604 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 604 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 604, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 604, and so forth.

Count by 604 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 604s 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 604, but don't have the Counting by 604s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 604s is that the number increases by 604.

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 604 goes 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 604.

Why Count by 604?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 604 is important, because it teaches you how the arithmetic operations fit together. Below are some examples of what we mean.

When you count by six hundred four, you are also creating a list of multiples of 604 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 604 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 604.

When you skip count by 604, you are also creating a list of numbers that 604 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 604 is the same as making the 604 times table.
