new way of counting multiples

only works with 1-9

everyone can count by ones and twos and threes and 5 but what about 6,7,8,9

well i thought if wat if you counted by the last digit like for example

6 36 66
12 42 72
18 48 78
24 54 84
30 60 90
see the pattern in the last digit 6,2,8,4,0

and with 7
7 77
14 84
21 91
28 98
35 105
42 112
49 119
56 126
63 133
70 140
the pattern here with 7,4,1,8,5,2,9,6,3,0

lets do 8 8,6,4,2,0 theres a pattern there
lets do 9 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0

it may take a little longer to count this way but its te first time ive ever seen anything like it.i know theres awlays constant patterns in math but i thought i would share this. like to here what you or any math majors think

sorry i accidently put it under the rong topic.

You might try looking up a little thing called the "Trachtenberg System".

Here's a link that gives some general principles or concepts:

mathforum.org...

Cool stuff though...

Thanks, I've been using the paterns in numbers for about 5 years.
Never knew what the system was called.
(Never interested enough in finding out to look)
