What two numbers multiply to 726 and add up to 245?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 726 and add up to 245?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 242

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 242 multiply to 726 and add up to 245:

3 × 242 = 726
3 + 242 = 245

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

x² + 245x + 726 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 242)

To summarize, since 3 and 242 multiply to 726 and add up 245, you know that the following is true:

x² + 245x + 726 = (x + 3 ) (x + 242)
