What two numbers multiply to 628 and add up to -316?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 628 and add up to -316?"

The answer to your question is:

-314 and -2

Below we illustrate and prove that -314 and -2 multiply to 628 and add up to -316:

-314 × -2 = 628
-314 + -2 = -316

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

x² - 316x + 628 = 0

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

(x - 314 ) (x - 2)

To summarize, since -314 and -2 multiply to 628 and add up -316, you know that the following is true:

x² - 316x + 628 = (x - 314 ) (x - 2)
