• Let the first number be x,(x+2),(x+4),(x+6),(x+8),(x+10)
  so, 6X+30=888
  which gives 6x=858
  x=143
  the six numbers are 143,145,147,149,151,153
  143+145+147+149+151+153=888
  888/6=148 is the answer

• For calculating, average of 6 nos, sum of 6 nos is sufficient.
  There is no need to waste time to find the numbers.
  
  so I think, Nishant is right.

• average=sum of no/total no.
  
  as given sum=888 and total no=6
  
  therefore avg=888/6=148
