What two numbers multiply to 748 and add up to 61?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 748 and add up to 61?"

The answer to your question is:

17 and 44

Below we illustrate and prove that 17 and 44 multiply to 748 and add up to 61:

17 × 44 = 748
17 + 44 = 61

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

x² + 61x + 748 = 0

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

(x + 17 ) (x + 44)

To summarize, since 17 and 44 multiply to 748 and add up 61, you know that the following is true:

x² + 61x + 748 = (x + 17 ) (x + 44)
