Answer:

58, 60, 62, 64 and 66

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be n.  Then the five consecutive even numbers are

n, n+2, n+4, n+6, n+8.  Adding these together and setting the sum equal to 310, we get 5n + 20 = 310.  Thus, 5n = 290, and n = 58.

The five consecutive numbers are 58, 60, 62, 64 and 66.
