Count by 606 (Skip Counting by 606s)

Count by 606

Here we will show you how to count by 606, discuss counting by 606 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 606 matters. To start off, note that Count by 606 means counting in 606s, or count by six hundred sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 606.

How to count by 606
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 606, we count 606, 1212, 1818, 2424, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 606 or skip counting by 606, we start with 606 and then add 606 to get the next number, and then continue adding 606 to the previous number to keep counting by 606, like this:

606
606 + 606 = 1212
1212 + 606 = 1818
1818 + 606 = 2424
2424 + 606 = 3030
...

You can of course skip count by 606 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 606 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 606, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 606, and so forth.

Count by 606 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 606s 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 606, but don't have the Counting by 606s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 606s is that the number increases by 606.

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 606 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 606.

Why Count by 606?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 606 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 six, you are also creating a list of multiples of 606 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 606 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 606.

When you skip count by 606, you are also creating a list of numbers that 606 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 606 is the same as making the 606 times table.
