What two numbers multiply to 492 and add up to 88?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 492 and add up to 88?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 82

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 82 multiply to 492 and add up to 88:

6 × 82 = 492
6 + 82 = 88

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

x² + 88x + 492 = 0

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

(x + 6 ) (x + 82)

To summarize, since 6 and 82 multiply to 492 and add up 88, you know that the following is true:

x² + 88x + 492 = (x + 6 ) (x + 82)
