The difference between two number is 200.

x = smaller number
y = larger number

y - x = 200

larger nomber = y = 200+x 

One number is between 400 and 450.

400 < 200+x < 450

200 < x < 250

The other number is more than 200 but less than 210

200 < x < 210

smaller    larger    
  201       401
  202       402
  203       403
  204       404
  205       405
  206       406
  207       407
  208       408
  209       409
