Count by 726 (Skip Counting by 726s)

Count by 726

Here we will show you how to count by 726, discuss counting by 726 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 726 matters. To start off, note that Count by 726 means counting in 726s, or count by seven hundred twenty-sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 726.

How to count by 726
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 726, we count 726, 1452, 2178, 2904, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 726 or skip counting by 726, we start with 726 and then add 726 to get the next number, and then continue adding 726 to the previous number to keep counting by 726, like this:

726
726 + 726 = 1452
1452 + 726 = 2178
2178 + 726 = 2904
2904 + 726 = 3630
...

You can of course skip count by 726 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 726 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 726, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 726, and so forth.

Count by 726 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 726s 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 726, but don't have the Counting by 726s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 726s is that the number increases by 726.

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 726 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 726.
