What two numbers multiply to 450 and add up to 59?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 450 and add up to 59?"

The answer to your question is:

9 and 50

Below we illustrate and prove that 9 and 50 multiply to 450 and add up to 59:

9 × 50 = 450
9 + 50 = 59

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

x² + 59x + 450 = 0

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

(x + 9 ) (x + 50)

To summarize, since 9 and 50 multiply to 450 and add up 59, you know that the following is true:

x² + 59x + 450 = (x + 9 ) (x + 50)
