What two numbers multiply to 825 and add up to -86?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 825 and add up to -86?"

The answer to your question is:

-75 and -11

Below we illustrate and prove that -75 and -11 multiply to 825 and add up to -86:

-75 × -11 = 825
-75 + -11 = -86

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

x² - 86x + 825 = 0

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

(x - 75 ) (x - 11)

To summarize, since -75 and -11 multiply to 825 and add up -86, you know that the following is true:

x² - 86x + 825 = (x - 75 ) (x - 11)
