Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 240 and add up to -46?"

The answer to your question is:

-40 and -6


Below we illustrate and prove that -40 and -6 multiply to 240 and add up to -46:

-40 × -6 = 240
-40 + -6 = -46

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

x2 - 46x + 240 = 0

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

(x - 40 ) (x - 6)

To summarize, since -40 and -6 multiply to 240 and add up -46, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 46x + 240 = (x - 40 ) (x - 6)
