Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 586 and add up to 295?"

The answer to your question is:

2 and 293

Below we illustrate and prove that 2 and 293 multiply to 586 and add up to 295:

2 × 293 = 586
2 + 293 = 295

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

x² + 295x + 586 = 0
