What two numbers multiply to 760 and add up to 157?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 760 and add up to 157?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 152

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 152 multiply to 760 and add up to 157:

5 × 152 = 760
5 + 152 = 157

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

x² + 157x + 760 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 152)

To summarize, since 5 and 152 multiply to 760 and add up 157, you know that the following is true:

x² + 157x + 760 = (x + 5 ) (x + 152)
