What two numbers multiply to 220 and add up to 49?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 220 and add up to 49?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 44

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 44 multiply to 220 and add up to 49:

5 × 44 = 220
5 + 44 = 49

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

x² + 49x + 220 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 44)

To summarize, since 5 and 44 multiply to 220 and add up 49, you know that the following is true:

x² + 49x + 220 = (x + 5 ) (x + 44)
