let the numbers be x & x+2
x+5(x+2)=82

Find two consecutive even intergers such that the smaller added to five times the larger gives the sum of 82
Let x = the smaller even integer
x+2 = the larger even integer
5(x+2) + x = 82
5x+10 + x = 82
6x = 72
x = 12 (the smaller integer)
x+2 = 12+2 = 14 (the larger integer)
The two consecutive even integers are 12 and 14.
