What two numbers multiply to 212 and add up to 108?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 212 and add up to 108?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 106

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 106 multiply to 212 and add up to 108:

2 × 106 = 212
2 + 106 = 108

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

x² + 108x + 212 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 106)

To summarize, since 2 and 106 multiply to 212 and add up 108, you know that the following is true:

x² + 108x + 212 = (x + 2 ) (x + 106)
