Count by 848 (Skip Counting by 848s)

Count by 848

Here we will show you how to count by 848, discuss counting by 848 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 848 matters. To start off, note that Count by 848 means counting in 848s, or count by eight hundred forty-eights, and it is also called skip counting by 848.

How to count by 848
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 848, we count 848, 1696, 2544, 3392, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 848 or skip counting by 848, we start with 848 and then add 848 to get the next number, and then continue adding 848 to the previous number to keep counting by 848, like this:

848
848 + 848 = 1696
1696 + 848 = 2544
2544 + 848 = 3392
3392 + 848 = 4240
...

You can of course skip count by 848 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 848 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 848, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 848, and so forth.

Count by 848 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 848s 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 848, but don't have the Counting by 848s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 848s is that the number increases by 848.

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 848 goes 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 848.
