Answer:

Kants believe that there actions that are good consequently to a lot of people.They may benefit a lot of people particularly in the society -- It does not make sense if the actions are not morally upright. Lucky, perhaps. But we can not say an action is lucky because they are gooo morally or they are unlucky because they are morally wrong

And utilitarians believe the proper way to evaluate an action is in the consequences. If more people derive more benefits than the other options, then it is morally good and that's all there is to be said.

For Kant, that is not all there is to be said.

evaluation of  the moral worth of action by Utilitarian moral theories  on the basis of happiness that is produced by an action.

Kant has an objection to moral evaluations of this sort. The reason behind is objection is that utilitarian theories  devalue the individuals it is supposed to benefit.

Kent alos objects because the utilitarian theories is bent on man inclination for happiness and pleasure not by universal moral laws.
