What two numbers multiply to 244 and add up to 65?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 244 and add up to 65?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 61

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 61 multiply to 244 and add up to 65:

4 × 61 = 244
4 + 61 = 65

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

x² + 65x + 244 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 61)

To summarize, since 4 and 61 multiply to 244 and add up 65, you know that the following is true:

x² + 65x + 244 = (x + 4 ) (x + 61)
