Let one of the integer be x.

So other is 4 less than twice of it, i.e., 2x - 4

Now, the sum of their squares is 653.

Thus,

x² + (2x - 4)² = 653

x² + (4x² + 16 - 16x) = 653

5x² - 16x - 637 = 0

5x² - 65x + 49x - 637 = 0

5x(x - 13) + 49(x - 13) = 0

(5x + 49)(x - 13) = 0

Thus, x = -49/5 or x = 13

Since x is a positive integer, thus x = 13

Other integer = 2x - 4 = (2 × 13) - 4 = 22

Therefore,

Smaller : 13

Larger : 22

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
