What two numbers multiply to 525 and add up to 46?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 525 and add up to 46?"

The answer to your question is:

21 and 25

Below we illustrate and prove that 21 and 25 multiply to 525 and add up to 46:

21 × 25 = 525
21 + 25 = 46

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

x² + 46x + 525 = 0

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

(x + 21 ) (x + 25)

To summarize, since 21 and 25 multiply to 525 and add up 46, you know that the following is true:

x² + 46x + 525 = (x + 21 ) (x + 25)
