Count by 628 (Skip Counting by 628s)

Count by 628

Here we will show you how to count by 628, discuss counting by 628 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 628 matters. To start off, note that Count by 628 means counting in 628s, or count by six hundred twenty-eights, and it is also called skip counting by 628.

How to count by 628
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 628, we count 628, 1256, 1884, 2512, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 628 or skip counting by 628, we start with 628 and then add 628 to get the next number, and then continue adding 628 to the previous number to keep counting by 628, like this:

628
628 + 628 = 1256
1256 + 628 = 1884
1884 + 628 = 2512
2512 + 628 = 3140
...

You can of course skip count by 628 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 628 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 628, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 628, and so forth.

Count by 628 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 628s 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 628, but don't have the Counting by 628s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 628s is that the number increases by 628.

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 628 goes 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 628.
