What two numbers multiply to 49 and add up to 14?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 49 and add up to 14?"

The answer to your question is:

7 and 7

Below we illustrate and prove that 7 and 7 multiply to 49 and add up to 14:

7 × 7 = 49
7 + 7 = 14

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

x² + 14x + 49 = 0

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

(x + 7 ) (x + 7)

To summarize, since 7 and 7 multiply to 49 and add up 14, you know that the following is true:

x² + 14x + 49 = (x + 7 ) (x + 7)
