Count by 803 (Skip Counting by 803s)

Count by 803

Here we will show you how to count by 803, discuss counting by 803 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 803 matters. To start off, note that Count by 803 means counting in 803s, or count by eight hundred threes, and it is also called skip counting by 803.

How to count by 803
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 803, we count 803, 1606, 2409, 3212, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 803 or skip counting by 803, we start with 803 and then add 803 to get the next number, and then continue adding 803 to the previous number to keep counting by 803, like this:

803
803 + 803 = 1606
1606 + 803 = 2409
2409 + 803 = 3212
3212 + 803 = 4015
...

You can of course skip count by 803 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 803 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 803, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 803, and so forth.

Count by 803 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 803s 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 803, but don't have the Counting by 803s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 803s is that the number increases by 803.

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 803 goes 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 803.

Why Count by 803?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 803 is important, because it teaches you how the arithmetic operations fit together. Below are some examples of what we mean.

When you count by eight hundred three, you are also creating a list of multiples of 803 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 803 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 803.

When you skip count by 803, you are also creating a list of numbers that 803 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 803 is the same as making the 803 times table.
