Count by 662 (Skip Counting by 662s)

Count by 662

Here we will show you how to count by 662, discuss counting by 662 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 662 matters. To start off, note that Count by 662 means counting in 662s, or count by six hundred sixty-twos, and it is also called skip counting by 662.

How to count by 662
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 662, we count 662, 1324, 1986, 2648, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 662 or skip counting by 662, we start with 662 and then add 662 to get the next number, and then continue adding 662 to the previous number to keep counting by 662, like this:

662
662 + 662 = 1324
1324 + 662 = 1986
1986 + 662 = 2648
2648 + 662 = 3310
...

You can of course skip count by 662 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 662 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 662, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 662, and so forth.

Count by 662 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 662s 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 662, but don't have the Counting by 662s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 662s is that the number increases by 662.

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 662 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 662.
