What two numbers multiply to 415 and add up to 88?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 415 and add up to 88?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 83

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 83 multiply to 415 and add up to 88:

5 × 83 = 415
5 + 83 = 88

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

x² + 88x + 415 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 83)

To summarize, since 5 and 83 multiply to 415 and add up 88, you know that the following is true:

x² + 88x + 415 = (x + 5 ) (x + 83)
