What are four consecutive numbers that add up to 35?

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

There are no four consecutive whole numbers that add up to 35.

The sum of two consecutive [whole] numbers is an even number plus an odd number which is an odd number.

The sum of two consecutive numbers and the two next consecutive numbers is the sum of two odd numbers which is even, but 35 is odd, so no four consecutive whole numbers cannot add up to 35.
