Any pair of consecutive integers will be made of an odd integer and an even integer, so the sum of two consecutive integers will always be an odd number, and cannot be 176.
The sum of two consecutive even integers cannot be 176, either,
because is even.
If the sum of two consecutive odd integers is ,
the average of those two integers is ,
and the two integers are
and ,
both odd and consecutive odd integers.

ANOTHER WAY:
= the smallest integer (odd or even)
= the other consecutive integer of the same kind (odd or even)
If the sum of those two integers is 176,
