100
Let the five consecutive numbers be represented as n-2, n-1, n, n+1, and n+2. The sum of these numbers can be expressed as (n-2) + (n-1) + n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 5n. Setting this sum equal to 100 gives us 5n = 100. Solving for n, we find n = 20. Therefore, the five consecutive numbers that add up to 100 are 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22.
