Skip Forwarding by 10.


Skip Forwarding by 10.

0+10 = 10

10+10 = 20

20+10 = 30


Backward Skip Counting by 10: when we perform backward skip count we have to subtract 10 from particular numbers,

for example –

100 – 10 = 90

90 – 10 = 80


2 Tens are 20:

In the term of skip counting by 10, tens are adding on 10, the respective answer was 20. In other words, 2 tens are 20, representing that if we are adding 10 to again with 10, we get 20 as a skip account number by 10. We can also say that two times out of 10 is represented as 20.
