Count by 727 (Skip Counting by 727s)

Count by 727

Here we will show you how to count by 727, discuss counting by 727 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 727 matters. To start off, note that Count by 727 means counting in 727s, or count by seven hundred twenty-sevens, and it is also called skip counting by 727.

How to count by 727
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 727, we count 727, 1454, 2181, 2908, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 727 or skip counting by 727, we start with 727 and then add 727 to get the next number, and then continue adding 727 to the previous number to keep counting by 727, like this:

727
727 + 727 = 1454
1454 + 727 = 2181
2181 + 727 = 2908
2908 + 727 = 3635
...

You can of course skip count by 727 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 727 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 727, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 727, and so forth.

Count by 727 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 727s 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 727, but don't have the Counting by 727s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 727s is that the number increases by 727.

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 10 over and over. The pattern of the last digit when you count by 727 goes 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 727.
