What two numbers multiply to 708 and add up to 239?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 708 and add up to 239?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 236

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 236 multiply to 708 and add up to 239:

3 × 236 = 708
3 + 236 = 239

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

x² + 239x + 708 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 236)

To summarize, since 3 and 236 multiply to 708 and add up 239, you know that the following is true:

x² + 239x + 708 = (x + 3 ) (x + 236)
