You can put this solution on YOUR website!
consecutive integers = integers directly one after the other (for example, 2 and 3)

consecutive integers = even integers directly one after the other (for example, 2 and 4)

x + (x + 2) > 75
2x + 2 > 75
2x > 73
x > 36.5

The smallest possible value of the smallest integer is 38.
