<h3>Answer:   27</h3>

===============================================

Work Shown:

x = smaller integer

x+1 = larger integer

x and x+1 are consecutive integers since the larger follows right after the smaller

5*(smaller) - 3*(larger) = 51

5*(x) - 3*(x+1) = 51

5x - 3x - 3 = 51

2x - 3 = 51

2x = 51+3

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

x+1 = 27+1 = 28

The two consecutive integers are 27 and 28.
