What two numbers multiply to -981 and add up to -324?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -981 and add up to -324?"

The answer to your question is:

-327 and 3

Below we illustrate and prove that -327 and 3 multiply to -981 and add up to -324:

-327 × 3 = -981
-327 + 3 = -324

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

x² - 324x - 981 = 0

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

(x - 327 ) (x + 3)

To summarize, since -327 and 3 multiply to -981 and add up -324, you know that the following is true:

x² - 324x - 981 = (x - 327 ) (x + 3)
