What two numbers multiply to 783 and add up to 264?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 783 and add up to 264?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 261

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 261 multiply to 783 and add up to 264:

3 × 261 = 783
3 + 261 = 264

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

x² + 264x + 783 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 261)

To summarize, since 3 and 261 multiply to 783 and add up 264, you know that the following is true:

x² + 264x + 783 = (x + 3 ) (x + 261)
