First, assign a variable that you're looking for.
Let x = the larger number
Then x - 1 = the smaller number
The sum of x and x - 2 will equal to 226.
x + x - 1 = 226
2x - 1 = 226
2x = 228
x = 114
So, the smaller number is 112 and the larger number is 114.

Answer:
46
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of base CD is twice the length of midsegment FG, so you can write the equation ...
CD = 2×FG
-3x +52 = 2(13 +5x)
52 = 26 +13x . . . . . . . . add 3x, simplify
26 = 13x . . . . . . . . . subtract 26
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 13
Then the measure of CD is ...
CD = -3x +52 = -3(2) +52 = -6 +52
CD = 46
