There is no set of 8 consecutive whole numbers whose sum is 75.
Consecutive whole numbers will have an odd sum. Consecutive odd numbers, or consecutive prime numbers, will be 29 and 31.

16,25,36 add to 77. They are the squares of consecutive numbers 4,5,6
Let the numbers be n, n+1, n+ 2, n+3. Hence n + n+1 + n+ 2 + n+3 = 35 Collect like terms 4n + 6 = 35 Subtract '6' from both sides 4n = 29 Divide both sides by '4' n = 7.25 , 8.25, 9.25, 10.25
The consecutive numbers that add up to eight are 3 and 4. When you add these two numbers together (3 + 4), the sum is 7. However, there are no two consecutive whole numbers that sum to 8. The closest consecutive whole numbers are 4 and 5, which add up to 9.
Let the numbers be n, n+1, n+ 2, n+3. Hence n + n+1 + n+ 2 + n+3 = 35 Collect like terms 4n + 6 = 35 Subtract '6' from both sides 4n = 29 Divide both sides by '4' n = 7.25 , 8.25, 9.25, 10.25
Consecutive whole numbers will have an odd sum. Consecutive odd numbers, or consecutive prime numbers, will be 29 and 31.
The numbers are 43, 44, 45, and 46.
48 + 49 = 97

It is impossible to add nine consecutive whole numbers to make 375. The results closest to 375 are the sum of the numbers 37 to 45 (369), and the sum of the numbers 38 to 46 (378).

[ x +(x+1)] = 257 2x + 1 = 257 2x = 256 x = 128 & 129
There are no two consecutive numbers that add or multiply to 102.
