The presidents either died or resigned, and their vice presidents took office, or the vice presidents were elected on their own.
Death or impeachment. They can resign, but I don't think this has ever happened.Nixon resigned his office and Ford took over the presidency.
Andrew Johnson Chester Arthur Theodore Roosevelt Lyndon Johnson
The vice-president Calvin Coolidge, took office after Harding died.
7 Vice Presidents took over and became president, when the sitting President died in office. The other 7 VPs were elected to the VP spot, then ran for office of President and won. And 7 Vice Presidents have themselves died while in office. 14 deaths while in office, and we've only had approximately 88 total VPs and Presidents. Those are interesting stats.

Tyler, Fillmore, Andrew Johnson, Arthur, Theodore Roosevelt, Coolidge, Truman, Lyndon Johnson and Ford all took office because the Presidency became vacant.
Millard Filmore A+ answer Arthur A+
Five US presidents: Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford. Note: Johnson took over after Kennedy was shot (assassinated). Ford took over after Nixon was "Watergated" (resigned) out of office.
All but Jefferson, VanBuren, Buchanan, Cleveland, and Arthur were married when they took office. Jefferson, VanBure and Arthur were widowers. Jackson's wife was alive when he was elected but died before he took office. Arthur was never elected president.
hmmm well you didn't finish your question so I will list all presidents that were assassinated and who took over their position. After President Lincoln was assassinated Vice President Andrew Johnson took over. After President Garfield was assassinated Vice President Chester A Arther took over. After President William McKinley was assassinated Vice President Theodore Roosevelt took over. And Finally, after President John F Kennedy was assassinated Vice President Lyndon B Johnson took over. These are presidents who just died during office, they weren't assassinated. President William Henry Harrison was replaced by Vice President John Tyler. (died of pneumonia) President Zachery Taylor was replaced by Vice President Millard Fillmore. (died of food poisoning at picnic.) President Harding was replaced by Vice President Calvin Coolidge. (heart attack) President Franklin D Roosevelt was replaced by Vice President Truman. (died of cerebral hemmorage)
