It wouldn't be able to be because since all of the the numbers that could fit is probably going to be a decimal. Let's say we find 4 consecutive numbers of 32.

Equation:

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)=32

4x+6=32

    -6    -6

4x=26

x=6.5 1. 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5

As you can see, the consecutive number is going to be a decimal.
