What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 69?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 540 and add up to 69?"

The answer to your question is:

9 and 60

Below we illustrate and prove that 9 and 60 multiply to 540 and add up to 69:

9 × 60 = 540
9 + 60 = 69

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

x² + 69x + 540 = 0

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

(x + 9 ) (x + 60)

To summarize, since 9 and 60 multiply to 540 and add up 69, you know that the following is true:

x² + 69x + 540 = (x + 9 ) (x + 60)
