What two numbers multiply to 790 and add up to 163?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 790 and add up to 163?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 158

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 158 multiply to 790 and add up to 163:

5 × 158 = 790
5 + 158 = 163

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

x² + 163x + 790 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 158)

To summarize, since 5 and 158 multiply to 790 and add up 163, you know that the following is true:

x² + 163x + 790 = (x + 5 ) (x + 158)
