초록

This study is about the number expressed and the number not expressed in terms of the sum of consecutive natural numbers with a difference of 2k. Since it is difficult to generalize in cases of onsecutive positive integers with a difference of 2k, the table of cases of 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 was examined to find the normality and to prove the hypothesis through the results. Generalized guesswork through tables was made to establish and prove the hypothesis of the number of possible and impossible numbers that are to all consecutive natural numbers with a difference of 2k. Finally, it was possible to verify the possibility and impossibility of the sum of consecutive cases of 124 and 2010. It is expected to be investigated the sum of consecutive natural numbers with a difference of 2k + 1, as a future research task.
