COMMENT

4 comes after 5 hence the next terms after 5 are so chosen that the property holds for 4 as well.

The next term a(49) does not exist, so there are no more terms. This is because a(25)=24 and a(27)=22 both must divide a(49). Assuming that a(49)=x, this leads to 867+x=24a and 824+x=22b for some integers a and b. Subtracting, we get 43=24a-22b, which is a contradiction. - John W.

EXAMPLE

5 divides the sum (4 + 6 +7 +8 + 15) of the next five terms and 4 does so for (6+7+8+15).
