What two numbers multiply to 160 and add up to 44?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 160 and add up to 44?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 40

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 40 multiply to 160 and add up to 44:

4 × 40 = 160
4 + 40 = 44

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

x² + 44x + 160 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 40)

To summarize, since 4 and 40 multiply to 160 and add up 44, you know that the following is true:

x² + 44x + 160 = (x + 4 ) (x + 40)
