Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -228 and add up to -53?"

The answer to your question is:

-57 and 4


Below we illustrate and prove that -57 and 4 multiply to -228 and add up to -53:

-57 × 4 = -228
-57 + 4 = -53

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

x2 - 53x - 228 = 0

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

(x - 57 ) (x + 4)

To summarize, since -57 and 4 multiply to -228 and add up -53, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 53x - 228 = (x - 57 ) (x + 4)
