What two numbers multiply to 308 and add up to 39?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 308 and add up to 39?"

The answer to your question is:

11 and 28

Below we illustrate and prove that 11 and 28 multiply to 308 and add up to 39:

11 × 28 = 308
11 + 28 = 39

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

x² + 39x + 308 = 0

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

(x + 11 ) (x + 28)

To summarize, since 11 and 28 multiply to 308 and add up 39, you know that the following is true:

x² + 39x + 308 = (x + 11 ) (x + 28)
