This question can be answered in two ways. There are vice presidents who have gone on to become president because the former president has died or resigned and then there are those that were also reelected.
James Tyler became president in 1842 after James Harrison died. He did not run again.
Millard Fillmore became president in 1850 after Taylor died. He lost the nomination to become president.
Andrew Johnson became president in 1865 after Lincoln was shot. He failed to win the nomination.
Chester Arthur became president in 1881 after Garfield was assassinated and he was not nominated to run again.
Theodore Roosevelt, in 1901 rose to presidency after McKinley was assassinated. He ran for the next term and won. He did not run in th 1908, but ran in 1912 and lost.
Calvin Coolidge took over for Harding in 1928 after he had a heart attack. He was elected to a full term, but did not seek a second.
Harry Truman became president in 1945 for Franklin Roosevelt. He was elected for a full term, but did not seek reelection.
Lyndon B. Johnson, in 1963, became president when Kennedy was shot. He was elected for a full term, but did not run for relection in 1968.
Lastly, after Nixon resigned, Gerald Ford became president in 1974. He lost the election to to Jimmy Carter in 1976.

If the President dies in office, resigns his post, or is impeached and removed, the Vice President steps up to become President and complete the term.
33 of the 47 US vice-president never became President. See the related questions for more details.
The last time the total number of Presidents and Vice Presidents was the same was near the end of the 19th century, when McKinley was President and Hobart was Vice President. Then after Vice President Hobart died McKinley needed a new running mate. When he was reelected, Theodore Roosevelt was his new Vice President, and the number of V.P.'s then exceeded the number of Presidents by one. The difference of one remained until Franklin Roosevelt was President. He changed Vice Presidents twice (he had a total of three). So at that point, when Roosevelt started his 4th term, the total of vice presidents was three more than the total of presidents. The difference of three remained until Gerald Ford was appointed to replace Vice President Agnew, who resigned in 1973. The difference then became four, where it remains to this day (43 presidents and 47 vice presidents).
no, this way if the president dies, the vice president is still there to replace him
