What two numbers multiply to 460 and add up to 232?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 460 and add up to 232?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 230

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 230 multiply to 460 and add up to 232:

2 × 230 = 460
2 + 230 = 232

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

x² + 232x + 460 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 230)

To summarize, since 2 and 230 multiply to 460 and add up 232, you know that the following is true:

x² + 232x + 460 = (x + 2 ) (x + 230)
