What two numbers multiply to 132 and add up to 68?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 132 and add up to 68?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 66

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 66 multiply to 132 and add up to 68:

2 × 66 = 132
2 + 66 = 68

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

x² + 68x + 132 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 66)

To summarize, since 2 and 66 multiply to 132 and add up 68, you know that the following is true:

x² + 68x + 132 = (x + 2 ) (x + 66)
