What two numbers multiply to 527 and add up to 48?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 527 and add up to 48?"

The answer to your question is:

17 and 31

Below we illustrate and prove that 17 and 31 multiply to 527 and add up to 48:

17 × 31 = 527
17 + 31 = 48

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

x² + 48x + 527 = 0

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

(x + 17 ) (x + 31)

To summarize, since 17 and 31 multiply to 527 and add up 48, you know that the following is true:

x² + 48x + 527 = (x + 17 ) (x + 31)
