What two numbers multiply to 216 and add up to 58?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 216 and add up to 58?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 54

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 54 multiply to 216 and add up to 58:

4 × 54 = 216
4 + 54 = 58

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

x² + 58x + 216 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 54)

To summarize, since 4 and 54 multiply to 216 and add up 58, you know that the following is true:

x² + 58x + 216 = (x + 4 ) (x + 54)
