What two numbers multiply to 852 and add up to 148?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 852 and add up to 148?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 142

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 142 multiply to 852 and add up to 148:

6 × 142 = 852
6 + 142 = 148

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

x² + 148x + 852 = 0

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

(x + 6 ) (x + 142)

To summarize, since 6 and 142 multiply to 852 and add up 148, you know that the following is true:

x² + 148x + 852 = (x + 6 ) (x + 142)
