What two numbers multiply to 576 and add up to 60?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 576 and add up to 60?"

The answer to your question is:

12 and 48

Below we illustrate and prove that 12 and 48 multiply to 576 and add up to 60:

12 × 48 = 576
12 + 48 = 60

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

x² + 60x + 576 = 0

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

(x + 12 ) (x + 48)

To summarize, since 12 and 48 multiply to 576 and add up 60, you know that the following is true:

x² + 60x + 576 = (x + 12 ) (x + 48)
