Difference between nearer numbers always equal

Given,

There are 5 consecutive even integers.

Then difference between each nearer number is 2

Let the first number be x

Then another 4 numbers be

(x + 2), (x + 4), (x + 6), (x + 8)

Now

According to question

(x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8) = 740

5x = 740 - 20

x = 144

And the highest number is x + 8 = 152
