Answer:
segment bisector
Step-by-step explanation:
Too cut in half, think bisect.
So we are talking about a segment, so segment bisector
I am not sure, but I think you are talking about the least square method
One way to do it is you can draw two sets of 7/8.
You can draw 8 tiles, and color in 7.
Draw that two times.
That’s one way, but that might not be the way you learned it.

<u>Define x:</u>
Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number is x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
<span>twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
</span>⇒2x = x + 2 - 16
<u>Solve x:</u>
2x = x + 2 - 16
x = -14
<u>Find the two numbers:</u>
Smaller number = x = -14
Larger number = x + 2 = -12
Answer: The two numbers are -14 and -12
