What two numbers multiply to 34 and add up to 19?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 34 and add up to 19?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 17

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 17 multiply to 34 and add up to 19:

2 × 17 = 34
2 + 17 = 19

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

x² + 19x + 34 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 17)

To summarize, since 2 and 17 multiply to 34 and add up 19, you know that the following is true:

x² + 19x + 34 = (x + 2 ) (x + 17)
