What two numbers multiply to 672 and add up to -62?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 672 and add up to -62?"

The answer to your question is:

-48 and -14

Below we illustrate and prove that -48 and -14 multiply to 672 and add up to -62:

-48 × -14 = 672
-48 + -14 = -62

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

x² - 62x + 672 = 0

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

(x - 48 ) (x - 14)

To summarize, since -48 and -14 multiply to 672 and add up -62, you know that the following is true:

x² - 62x + 672 = (x - 48 ) (x - 14)
