Counting in eights: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48… is adding an eight (or more) value from an original number.

Counting in fifty’s: 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300… is adding a fifty (or more) value from an original number.

Counting in hundreds: 100, 200, 300, 400, 500… is adding a hundred (or more) value from an original number.

When you write the numbers in digit, determine the place value of the first digit and, then write the number.
