x = lesser
x+2 = next even integer; the greater integer

twice the lesser of the two intergers is 2•x
the word is means equal
4 less than 2 times the greater integer

EQUATION: 2x = 2(x+2)-4
2x = 2x+4-4
2x = 2x
x = 0 ANSWER
x=2 = 0+2 = 2 ANSWER.

The equation has one solution because any two conseculive number can give you and answer that always 4 less than two times the greater interger.
