What two numbers multiply to 234 and add up to 45?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 234 and add up to 45?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 39

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 39 multiply to 234 and add up to 45:

6 × 39 = 234
6 + 39 = 45

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

x² + 45x + 234 = 0

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

(x + 6 ) (x + 39)

To summarize, since 6 and 39 multiply to 234 and add up 45, you know that the following is true:

x² + 45x + 234 = (x + 6 ) (x + 39)
