What two numbers multiply to 260 and add up to 132?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 260 and add up to 132?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 130

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 130 multiply to 260 and add up to 132:

2 × 130 = 260
2 + 130 = 132

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

x² + 132x + 260 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 130)

To summarize, since 2 and 130 multiply to 260 and add up 132, you know that the following is true:

x² + 132x + 260 = (x + 2 ) (x + 130)
