What two numbers multiply to 152 and add up to 27?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 152 and add up to 27?"

The answer to your question is:

8 and 19

Below we illustrate and prove that 8 and 19 multiply to 152 and add up to 27:

8 × 19 = 152
8 + 19 = 27

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

x² + 27x + 152 = 0

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

(x + 8 ) (x + 19)

To summarize, since 8 and 19 multiply to 152 and add up 27, you know that the following is true:

x² + 27x + 152 = (x + 8 ) (x + 19)
