It would be counting by "x",

so you would start with a number, like 8, then the next would be 8 + x,

followed by 8 + x + x, etc. The x must be the same always.

Counting numbers are positive whole numbers and not zero. They can also be called 'natural numbers'. They are so called because when you count, you start at +1, 5554

, +3 and continue on in this pattern.
