What two numbers multiply to 264 and add up to 91?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 264 and add up to 91?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 88

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 88 multiply to 264 and add up to 91:

3 × 88 = 264
3 + 88 = 91

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

x² + 91x + 264 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 88)

To summarize, since 3 and 88 multiply to 264 and add up 91, you know that the following is true:

x² + 91x + 264 = (x + 3 ) (x + 88)
