What two numbers multiply to 482 and add up to 243?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 482 and add up to 243?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 241

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 241 multiply to 482 and add up to 243:

2 × 241 = 482
2 + 241 = 243

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

x² + 243x + 482 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 241)

To summarize, since 2 and 241 multiply to 482 and add up 243, you know that the following is true:

x² + 243x + 482 = (x + 2 ) (x + 241)
