What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 183?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 183?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 180

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 180 multiply to 540 and add up to 183:

3 × 180 = 540
3 + 180 = 183

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

x² + 183x + 540 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 180)

To summarize, since 3 and 180 multiply to 540 and add up 183, you know that the following is true:

x² + 183x + 540 = (x + 3 ) (x + 180)
