I am trying to generate repeating numbers in the cell by decreasing patterns

Here's the pattern: if starting number is 6

[TABLE="width: 495"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]6[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]6[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]6[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]6[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]6[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]5[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]5[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]5[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]5[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]4[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]4[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]4[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]3[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]3[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 33"]2[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Thank you for help in advance.

Sheet3

[TABLE="width: 85%"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Worksheet Formulas[TABLE="width: 100%"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TH]Cell[/TH]
[TH="align: left"]Formula[/TH]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TH]B1[/TH]
[TD="align: left"]=IFERROR(IF(COUNTIF($A1:A1,A1)< A1-1,A1,IF(A1=2,"",A1-1)),"")[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Put the number you want in A1, put the formula in B1 and drag it right as needed.
