What two numbers multiply to 657 and add up to 222?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 657 and add up to 222?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 219

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 219 multiply to 657 and add up to 222:

3 × 219 = 657
3 + 219 = 222

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

x² + 222x + 657 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 219)

To summarize, since 3 and 219 multiply to 657 and add up 222, you know that the following is true:

x² + 222x + 657 = (x + 3 ) (x + 219)
