Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -618 and add up to -307?"
The answer to your question is:
-309 and 2
Below we illustrate and prove that -309 and 2 multiply to -618 and add up to -307:
-309 × 2 = -618
-309 + 2 = -307
Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?
x2 - 307x - 618 = 0
If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:
(x - 309 ) (x + 2)
To summarize, since -309 and 2 multiply to -618 and add up -307, you know that the following is true:
x2 - 307x - 618 = (x - 309 ) (x + 2)
