What two numbers multiply to 264 and add up to 50?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 264 and add up to 50?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 44

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 44 multiply to 264 and add up to 50:

6 × 44 = 264
6 + 44 = 50

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

x² + 50x + 264 = 0

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

(x + 6 ) (x + 44)

To summarize, since 6 and 44 multiply to 264 and add up 50, you know that the following is true:

x² + 50x + 264 = (x + 6 ) (x + 44)
