What two numbers multiply to 843 and add up to 284?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 843 and add up to 284?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 281

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 281 multiply to 843 and add up to 284:

3 × 281 = 843
3 + 281 = 284

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

x² + 284x + 843 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 281)

To summarize, since 3 and 281 multiply to 843 and add up 284, you know that the following is true:

x² + 284x + 843 = (x + 3 ) (x + 281)
