What two numbers multiply to -96 and add up to 95?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -96 and add up to 95?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 96


Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 96 multiply to -96 and add up to 95:

-1 × 96 = -96
-1 + 96 = 95

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x2 + 95x - 96 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x - 1 ) (x + 96)

To summarize, since -1 and 96 multiply to -96 and add up 95, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 95x - 96 = (x - 1 ) (x + 96)
