What two numbers multiply to 301 and add up to 50?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 301 and add up to 50?"

The answer to your question is:

7 and 43

Below we illustrate and prove that 7 and 43 multiply to 301 and add up to 50:

7 × 43 = 301
7 + 43 = 50

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

x² + 50x + 301 = 0

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

(x + 7 ) (x + 43)

To summarize, since 7 and 43 multiply to 301 and add up 50, you know that the following is true:

x² + 50x + 301 = (x + 7 ) (x + 43)
