A set consisting of at least two distinct positive integers is called centenary if its greatest element is 100100. We will consider the average of all numbers in a centenary set, which we will call the average of the set. For example, the average of the centenary set {1,2,20,100}\{1, 2, 20, 100\} is 1234\frac{123}{4} and the average of the centenary set {74,90,100}\{74, 90, 100\} is 8888. Determine all integers that can occur as the average of a centenary set.
