What two numbers multiply to 720 and add up to 54?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 720 and add up to 54?"

The answer to your question is:

24 and 30

Below we illustrate and prove that 24 and 30 multiply to 720 and add up to 54:

24 × 30 = 720
24 + 30 = 54

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

x² + 54x + 720 = 0

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

(x + 24 ) (x + 30)

To summarize, since 24 and 30 multiply to 720 and add up 54, you know that the following is true:

x² + 54x + 720 = (x + 24 ) (x + 30)
