$${Let}\:{the}\:{numbers}\:{be}:\:\left({x}−\mathrm{2},{x}−\mathrm{1},{x},{x}+\mathrm{1},{x}+\mathrm{2}\right) \\ $$$${x}=\mathrm{5}{a}+\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{7}{b}+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{9}{c}=\mathrm{11}{d}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{13}{e}−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\mathrm{7}{b}+\mathrm{1}\equiv\mathrm{2}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{5}\right)\Rightarrow{b}\equiv\mathrm{3}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{5}\right)\Rightarrow{b}=\mathrm{5}{f}+\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{7}\left(\mathrm{5}{f}+\mathrm{3}\right)+\mathrm{1}\equiv\mathrm{0}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{9}\right)\Rightarrow{f}\equiv\mathrm{4}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{9}\right)\Rightarrow{f}=\mathrm{9}{g}+\mathrm{4} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{7}{g}\equiv\mathrm{2}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{11}\right)\Rightarrow{g}\equiv\mathrm{5}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{11}\right)\Rightarrow{g}=\mathrm{11}{h}+\mathrm{5} \\ $$$$\mathrm{7}\left(\mathrm{495}{h}+\mathrm{248}\right)+\mathrm{1}\equiv\mathrm{11}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{13}\right) \\ $$$${h}\equiv\mathrm{6}\left({mod}\:\mathrm{13}\right);\:{h}=\mathrm{13}{i}+\mathrm{6} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\mathrm{3465}\left(\mathrm{13}{i}+\mathrm{6}\right)+\mathrm{1737}=\mathrm{45045}{i}+\mathrm{22527} \\ $$$${There}\:{are}\:{infinitely}\:{many}\:{solutions}\: \\ $$$${For}\:{example}:\:\left(\mathrm{22525},\mathrm{22526},\mathrm{22527},\mathrm{22528},\mathrm{22529}\right) \\ $$
