It is believed that the information given in statements is authentic and compatible with the question stem, no matter it suffices or not. How can seven integers, all divisible by seven, also be consecutive integers?

Seven different numbers are selected from the integers 1 to 100, and each number is divided by 7. What is the sum of the remainders?

Seven different numbers are selected from the integers 1 to 100, when each number is divided by 7, what is the sum of the remainders?
