    If both numbers were the same, then each one would be half of 52 ... that's 26.

    OK, swell.

    Take the 26 and 26. Take 1 away from one of the pair and glue it on the other one. You didn't change their sum, but now you have 25 and 27. Those differ by 2 ... exactly what you're looking for!
