What two numbers multiply to 447 and add up to 152?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 447 and add up to 152?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 149

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 149 multiply to 447 and add up to 152:

3 × 149 = 447
3 + 149 = 152

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

x² + 152x + 447 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 149)

To summarize, since 3 and 149 multiply to 447 and add up 152, you know that the following is true:

x² + 152x + 447 = (x + 3 ) (x + 149)
