What two numbers multiply to 850 and add up to 95?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 850 and add up to 95?"

The answer to your question is:

10 and 85

Below we illustrate and prove that 10 and 85 multiply to 850 and add up to 95:

10 × 85 = 850
10 + 85 = 95

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

x² + 95x + 850 = 0

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

(x + 10 ) (x + 85)

To summarize, since 10 and 85 multiply to 850 and add up 95, you know that the following is true:

x² + 95x + 850 = (x + 10 ) (x + 85)
