What two numbers multiply to 290 and add up to 39?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 290 and add up to 39?"

The answer to your question is:

10 and 29

Below we illustrate and prove that 10 and 29 multiply to 290 and add up to 39:

10 × 29 = 290
10 + 29 = 39

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

x² + 39x + 290 = 0

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

(x + 10 ) (x + 29)

To summarize, since 10 and 29 multiply to 290 and add up 39, you know that the following is true:

x² + 39x + 290 = (x + 10 ) (x + 29)
