You can put this solution on YOUR website! First represent your values:
let x be the 1st integer
x+1 be the 2nd integer
x+2 be the 3rd integer
x+4 be the 4th integer
Then equate according to the given conditions:
x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4=2+5x
Combine Similar terms:
4x+6=2+5x
x=4
Therefore the integers are 4,5,6 and 7. :)
