What two numbers multiply to 340 and add up to 172?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 340 and add up to 172?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 170

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 170 multiply to 340 and add up to 172:

2 × 170 = 340
2 + 170 = 172

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

x² + 172x + 340 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 170)

To summarize, since 2 and 170 multiply to 340 and add up 172, you know that the following is true:

x² + 172x + 340 = (x + 2 ) (x + 170)
