Count by 806 (Skip Counting by 806s)

Count by 806

Here we will show you how to count by 806, discuss counting by 806 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 806 matters. To start off, note that Count by 806 means counting in 806s, or count by eight hundred sixes, and it is also called skip counting by 806.

How to count by 806
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 806, we count 806, 1612, 2418, 3224, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 806 or skip counting by 806, we start with 806 and then add 806 to get the next number, and then continue adding 806 to the previous number to keep counting by 806, like this:

806
806 + 806 = 1612
1612 + 806 = 2418
2418 + 806 = 3224
3224 + 806 = 4030
...

You can of course skip count by 806 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 806 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 806, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 806, and so forth.

Count by 806 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 806s 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 806, but don't have the Counting by 806s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 806s is that the number increases by 806.

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 806 goes 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 806.

Why Count by 806?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 806 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 six, you are also creating a list of multiples of 806 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 806 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 806.

When you skip count by 806, you are also creating a list of numbers that 806 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 806 is the same as making the 806 times table.
