What two numbers multiply to 468 and add up to 61?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 468 and add up to 61?"

The answer to your question is:

9 and 52

Below we illustrate and prove that 9 and 52 multiply to 468 and add up to 61:

9 × 52 = 468
9 + 52 = 61

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

x² + 61x + 468 = 0

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

(x + 9 ) (x + 52)

To summarize, since 9 and 52 multiply to 468 and add up 61, you know that the following is true:

x² + 61x + 468 = (x + 9 ) (x + 52)
