Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 522 and add up to 177?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 174

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 174 multiply to 522 and add up to 177:

3 × 174 = 522
3 + 174 = 177

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

x² + 177x + 522 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 174)

To summarize, since 3 and 174 multiply to 522 and add up 177, you know that the following is true:

x² + 177x + 522 = (x + 3 ) (x + 174)
