What two numbers multiply to -280 and add up to 27?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -280 and add up to 27?"

The answer to your question is:

-8 and 35


Below we illustrate and prove that -8 and 35 multiply to -280 and add up to 27:

-8 × 35 = -280
-8 + 35 = 27

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

x2 + 27x - 280 = 0

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

(x - 8 ) (x + 35)

To summarize, since -8 and 35 multiply to -280 and add up 27, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 27x - 280 = (x - 8 ) (x + 35)
