Count by 824 (Skip Counting by 824s)

Count by 824

Here we will show you how to count by 824, discuss counting by 824 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 824 matters. To start off, note that Count by 824 means counting in 824s, or count by eight hundred twenty-fours, and it is also called skip counting by 824.

How to count by 824
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 824, we count 824, 1648, 2472, 3296, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 824 or skip counting by 824, we start with 824 and then add 824 to get the next number, and then continue adding 824 to the previous number to keep counting by 824, like this:

824
824 + 824 = 1648
1648 + 824 = 2472
2472 + 824 = 3296
3296 + 824 = 4120
...

You can of course skip count by 824 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 824 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 824, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 824, and so forth.

Count by 824 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 824s 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 824, but don't have the Counting by 824s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 824s is that the number increases by 824.

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 824 goes 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and 4, 8, 2, 6, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 824.

Why Count by 824?
We think that understanding and learning about skip counting by 824 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 twenty-four, you are also creating a list of multiples of 824 that you can use in math when you need the least common multiple. 824 times n equals the nth multiple or skip count of 824.

When you skip count by 824, you are also creating a list of numbers that 824 is divisible by. On top of that, skip counting by 824 is the same as making the 824 times table.
