Count down in steps of 6
for 3rd grade

Count down in steps of 6 from 60 using whole numbers

Count down in steps of 6 starting from 60

Counting down in steps of 6 means taking away 6 from a number each time. This is a great way to practice your subtraction skills and learn about patterns. When you count down in steps of 6 from 60, you are also finding the numbers in the 6 times table. Look at the boxes below.

60 (this is our starting point)

60 - 6 = 54 (we've taken 6 away from 60)

54 - 6 = 48 (another 6 taken away to make 48)

48 - 6 = 42 (another 6 taken away to make 42)

You can continue taking away 6 until you reach 0, and you will get all the numbers in the 6 times table.

This topic requires you to supply the missing number in lists that count down in steps of 6. There is one missing number in each list. Some of the missing numbers are in the middle of the lists, some are at the end. The lists count down from 60 to 0. An example question is:

42, 36, 30, ▢ : answer = 24

The answer is 24 because 30 - 6 = 24.
