What two numbers multiply to 808 and add up to -206?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 808 and add up to -206?"

The answer to your question is:

-202 and -4

Below we illustrate and prove that -202 and -4 multiply to 808 and add up to -206:

-202 × -4 = 808
-202 + -4 = -206

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

x² - 206x + 808 = 0

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

(x - 202 ) (x - 4)

To summarize, since -202 and -4 multiply to 808 and add up -206, you know that the following is true:

x² - 206x + 808 = (x - 202 ) (x - 4)
