What two numbers multiply to 177 and add up to 62?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 177 and add up to 62?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 59

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 59 multiply to 177 and add up to 62:

3 × 59 = 177
3 + 59 = 62

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

x² + 62x + 177 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 59)

To summarize, since 3 and 59 multiply to 177 and add up 62, you know that the following is true:

x² + 62x + 177 = (x + 3 ) (x + 59)
