Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 738 and add up to 249?"
The answer to your question is:
3 and 246
Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 246 multiply to 738 and add up to 249:
3 × 246 = 738
3 + 246 = 249
Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?
x2 + 249x + 738 = 0
If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:
(x + 3 ) (x + 246)
To summarize, since 3 and 246 multiply to 738 and add up 249, you know that the following is true:
x2 + 249x + 738 = (x + 3 ) (x + 246)
