What two numbers multiply to 465 and add up to 98?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 465 and add up to 98?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 93

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 93 multiply to 465 and add up to 98:

5 × 93 = 465
5 + 93 = 98

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

x² + 98x + 465 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 93)

To summarize, since 5 and 93 multiply to 465 and add up 98, you know that the following is true:

x² + 98x + 465 = (x + 5 ) (x + 93)
