The answer to your question is:

-171 and 2


Below we illustrate and prove that -171 and 2 multiply to -342 and add up to -169:

-171 × 2 = -342
-171 + 2 = -169

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

x2 - 169x - 342 = 0

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

(x - 171 ) (x + 2)

To summarize, since -171 and 2 multiply to -342 and add up -169, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 169x - 342 = (x - 171 ) (x + 2)
