What two numbers multiply to 480 and add up to 58?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 480 and add up to 58?"

The answer to your question is:

10 and 48

Below we illustrate and prove that 10 and 48 multiply to 480 and add up to 58:

10 × 48 = 480
10 + 48 = 58

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

x² + 58x + 480 = 0

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

(x + 10 ) (x + 48)

To summarize, since 10 and 48 multiply to 480 and add up 58, you know that the following is true:

x² + 58x + 480 = (x + 10 ) (x + 48)
