What two numbers multiply to 714 and add up to 241?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 714 and add up to 241?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 238

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 238 multiply to 714 and add up to 241:

3 × 238 = 714
3 + 238 = 241

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

x² + 241x + 714 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 238)

To summarize, since 3 and 238 multiply to 714 and add up 241, you know that the following is true:

x² + 241x + 714 = (x + 3 ) (x + 238)
