What two numbers multiply to 636 and add up to 163?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 636 and add up to 163?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 159

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 159 multiply to 636 and add up to 163:

4 × 159 = 636
4 + 159 = 163

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

x² + 163x + 636 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 159)

To summarize, since 4 and 159 multiply to 636 and add up 163, you know that the following is true:

x² + 163x + 636 = (x + 4 ) (x + 159)
