Let the first five integers be (a + 1), (a + 2), (a + 3), (a + 4) and (a + 5)$

Now,$

⇒$ {(a + 1), (a + 2), (a + 3), (a + 4) and (a + 5)} /5 = 53$

⇒$ 5a + 15 = 265$

⇒$ 5a = 250$

⇒$ a = 50 $

⇒$ Seven consecutive numbers are 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, and 57$

∴$ Required average = (51 + 52 + 53 + 54 + 55 + 56 + 57) /7 = 54$
