Count by 942 (Skip Counting by 942s)

Count by 942

Here we will show you how to count by 942, discuss counting by 942 patterns, and tell you why knowing how to count by 942 matters. To start off, note that Count by 942 means counting in 942s, or count by nine hundred forty-twos, and it is also called skip counting by 942.

How to count by 942
Normally, we would count by 1 like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, etc., but when we count by 942, we count 942, 1884, 2826, 3768, and so on.

In other words, to count in intervals of 942 or skip counting by 942, we start with 942 and then add 942 to get the next number, and then continue adding 942 to the previous number to keep counting by 942, like this:

942
942 + 942 = 1884
1884 + 942 = 2826
2826 + 942 = 3768
3768 + 942 = 4710
...

You can of course skip count by 942 forever, so it is impossible to make a list of all numbers, but below is a Count by 942 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 942, the second column has the next ten numbers you get when you skip count by 942, and so forth.

Count by 942 Patterns
We organized the Skip Counting by 942s 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 942, but don't have the Counting by 942s Chart above. Obviously, one pattern with counting by 942s is that the number increases by 942.

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 942 goes 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and so on for as long as you count by 942.
