To get the bigger number, divide by 2 the sum of the given sum of the numbers and their difference. In this case-

(226 + 200) / 2 = 426/2 = 213.

To get the smaller number, divide by 2 the difference of the given sum of the numbers and their difference. In this case -

(226 - 200) / 2 = 26/2 = 13.

The two numbers are 213 and 13.

The bigger number is 213
