What two numbers multiply to 562 and add up to 283?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 562 and add up to 283?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 281

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 281 multiply to 562 and add up to 283:

2 × 281 = 562
2 + 281 = 283

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

x² + 283x + 562 = 0

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

(x + 2 ) (x + 281)

To summarize, since 2 and 281 multiply to 562 and add up 283, you know that the following is true:

x² + 283x + 562 = (x + 2 ) (x + 281)
