There is a formula (Ramanujan's Formula, I believe), that lets you
figure out the number of ways you can divide a number -- ie. the number
of different ways you can make a series of numbers that adds up to the
number in question.  I don't know the formula offhand :-) and I don't
know how useful it would be for this particular question, however.
