What two numbers multiply to 702 and add up to 53?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 702 and add up to 53?"

The answer to your question is:

26 and 27

Below we illustrate and prove that 26 and 27 multiply to 702 and add up to 53:

26 × 27 = 702
26 + 27 = 53

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

x² + 53x + 702 = 0

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

(x + 26 ) (x + 27)

To summarize, since 26 and 27 multiply to 702 and add up 53, you know that the following is true:

x² + 53x + 702 = (x + 26 ) (x + 27)
