Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -918 and add up to -147?"

The answer to your question is:

-153 and 6

Below we illustrate and prove that -153 and 6 multiply to -918 and add up to -147:

-153 × 6 = -918
-153 + 6 = -147

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

x² - 147x - 918 = 0

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

(x - 153 ) (x + 6)

To summarize, since -153 and 6 multiply to -918 and add up -147, you know that the following is true:

x² - 147x - 918 = (x - 153 ) (x + 6)
