What two numbers multiply to 786 and add up to 265?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 786 and add up to 265?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 262

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 262 multiply to 786 and add up to 265:

3 × 262 = 786
3 + 262 = 265

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

x² + 265x + 786 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 262)

To summarize, since 3 and 262 multiply to 786 and add up 265, you know that the following is true:

x² + 265x + 786 = (x + 3 ) (x + 262)
