What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to -51?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to -51?"

The answer to your question is:

-36 and -15


Below we illustrate and prove that -36 and -15 multiply to 540 and add up to -51:

-36 × -15 = 540
-36 + -15 = -51

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

x2 - 51x + 540 = 0

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

(x - 36 ) (x - 15)

To summarize, since -36 and -15 multiply to 540 and add up -51, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 51x + 540 = (x - 36 ) (x - 15)
