Count by 858 (Skip Counting by 858s)

Count by 858

Here we will show you how to count by 858, discuss counting by 858 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 858 matters. To start off, note that Count by 858 means counting in 858s, or count by eight hundred fifty-eights, and it is also called skip counting by 858.

How to count by 858
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 858, we count 858, 1716, 2574, 3432, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 858 or skip counting by 858, we start with 858 and then add 858 to get the next number, and then continue adding 858 to the previous number to keep counting by 858, like this:

858
858 + 858 = 1716
1716 + 858 = 2574
2574 + 858 = 3432
3432 + 858 = 4290
...

You can of course skip count by 858 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 858 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 858, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 858, and so forth.

Count by 858 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 858s 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 858, but don't have the Counting by 858s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 858s is that the number increases by 858.

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 858 goes 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 858.
