What two numbers multiply to 753 and add up to 254?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 753 and add up to 254?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 251

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 251 multiply to 753 and add up to 254:

3 × 251 = 753
3 + 251 = 254

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

x² + 254x + 753 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 251)

To summarize, since 3 and 251 multiply to 753 and add up 254, you know that the following is true:

x² + 254x + 753 = (x + 3 ) (x + 251)
