What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 139?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 139?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 135

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 135 multiply to 540 and add up to 139:

4 × 135 = 540
4 + 135 = 139

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

x² + 139x + 540 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 135)

To summarize, since 4 and 135 multiply to 540 and add up 139, you know that the following is true:

x² + 139x + 540 = (x + 4 ) (x + 135)
