Integers range from a positive or negative number. So it's basically what to the power of 5 equals 200? Well you can just to the root of 200 by 5, or you can do some precise strategizing.

Guess and check or other methods. I just did some calculations with a calculator and got...

40+40+40+40+40

Here is the set up:

From left to right, the 5 consecutive integers.

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 200

5x + 10 = 200

5x = 200 - 10

5x = 190

x = 190/5

x = 98

The 5 consecutive integers are

98, 99, 100, 101, 102
