Thanks for “(at most)”. But for a moment I thought that a number can not be the sum of more than 49 :-)

Wikipedia on “additive basis” makes it clear:
“In additive number theory, an additive basis is a set S of natural numbers with the property that, for some finite number k, every natural number can be expressed as a sum of k or fewer elements of S.”
