Explanation
Let the five consecutive even numbers be represented as 2(x - 2), 2(x - 1), 2x, 2(x + 1), and 2(x + 2). Their sum is 10x = 440, so x = 44. Therefore, the smallest number in set X is 2(x - 2) = 84. The second smallest number in the other set is 2 * 84 - 121 = 47, which means the smallest number in this new set is 46. The sum of these five consecutive integers is 46 + 47 + 48 + 49 + 50 = 240.
