Interpreting this question as allowing any number of integers that sum to 15, and noting that "integer" allows for negative values:



 -14 + (-13) + ... + (-1) + 0 + 1 + 2 + ... + 15  = 15



Thus the answer is 15-(-14) =

 What is The difference Between the largest and Lowest integer in the sequence of consecutive all integers who sum is 15?

-------------

7 + 8 = 15

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15

----> 8 - 1 = 7

=======================

If 0 is accepted, then 8 - 0 = 8

If negative integers are accepted, then 

-3 + (-2) + (-1) + 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 15

---> difference = 9

etc

Not a well posed problem.
