Count by 645 (Skip Counting by 645s)

Count by 645

Here we will show you how to count by 645, discuss counting by 645 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 645 matters. To start off, note that Count by 645 means counting in 645s, or count by six hundred forty-fives, and it is also called skip counting by 645.

How to count by 645
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 645, we count 645, 1290, 1935, 2580, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 645 or skip counting by 645, we start with 645 and then add 645 to get the next number, and then continue adding 645 to the previous number to keep counting by 645, like this:

645
645 + 645 = 1290
1290 + 645 = 1935
1935 + 645 = 2580
2580 + 645 = 3225
...

You can of course skip count by 645 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 645 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 645, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 645, and so forth.

Count by 645 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 645s 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 645, but don't have the Counting by 645s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 645s is that the number increases by 645.

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 645 goes 5, 0 and 5, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 645.
