What two numbers multiply to 168 and add up to -31?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 168 and add up to -31?"

The answer to your question is:

-24 and -7


Below we illustrate and prove that -24 and -7 multiply to 168 and add up to -31:

-24 × -7 = 168
-24 + -7 = -31

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

x2 - 31x + 168 = 0

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

(x - 24 ) (x - 7)

To summarize, since -24 and -7 multiply to 168 and add up -31, you know that the following is true:

x2 - 31x + 168 = (x - 24 ) (x - 7)
