Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 837 and add up to 282?"
The answer to your question is:
3 and 279
Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 279 multiply to 837 and add up to 282:
3 × 279 = 837
3 + 279 = 282
Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?
x2 + 282x + 837 = 0
If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:
(x + 3 ) (x + 279)
To summarize, since 3 and 279 multiply to 837 and add up 282, you know that the following is true:
x2 + 282x + 837 = (x + 3 ) (x + 279)
