What two numbers multiply to 735 and add up to 248?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 735 and add up to 248?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 245

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 245 multiply to 735 and add up to 248:

3 × 245 = 735
3 + 245 = 248

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

x² + 248x + 735 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 245)

To summarize, since 3 and 245 multiply to 735 and add up 248, you know that the following is true:

x² + 248x + 735 = (x + 3 ) (x + 245)
