What two numbers multiply to 936 and add up to 85?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 936 and add up to 85?"

The answer to your question is:

13 and 72

Below we illustrate and prove that 13 and 72 multiply to 936 and add up to 85:

13 × 72 = 936
13 + 72 = 85

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

x² + 85x + 936 = 0

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

(x + 13 ) (x + 72)

To summarize, since 13 and 72 multiply to 936 and add up 85, you know that the following is true:

x² + 85x + 936 = (x + 13 ) (x + 72)
