Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 696 and add up to 178?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 174

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 174 multiply to 696 and add up to 178:

4 × 174 = 696
4 + 174 = 178

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

x² + 178x + 696 = 0
