What two numbers multiply to 536 and add up to 270?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 536 and add up to 270?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 268

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 268 multiply to 536 and add up to 270:

2 × 268 = 536
2 + 268 = 270

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

x² + 270x + 536 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 268)

To summarize, since 2 and 268 multiply to 536 and add up 270, you know that the following is true:

x² + 270x + 536 = (x + 2 ) (x + 268)
