Count by 8006 (Skip Counting by 8006s)

Count by 8006

Here we will show you how to count by 8006, discuss counting by 8006 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 8006 matters. To start off, note that Count by 8006 means counting in 8006s, or count by eight thousand sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 8006.

How to count by 8006
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 8006, we count 8006, 16012, 24018, 32024, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 8006 or skip counting by 8006, we start with 8006 and then add 8006 to get the next number, and then continue adding 8006 to the previous number to keep counting by 8006, like this:

8006
8006 + 8006 = 16012
16012 + 8006 = 24018
24018 + 8006 = 32024
32024 + 8006 = 40030
...

You can of course skip count by 8006 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 8006 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 8006, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 8006, and so forth.

Count by 8006 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 8006s 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 8006, but don't have the Counting by 8006s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 8006s is that the number increases by 8006.

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 8006 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 8006.

Why Count by 8006?

When you count by eight thousand six, you are also creating a list of multiples of 8006 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 8006 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 8006.

When you skip count by 8006, you are also creating a list of numbers that 8006 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 8006 is the same as making the 8006 times table.
