What two numbers multiply to 855 and add up to 104?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 855 and add up to 104?"

The answer to your question is:

9 and 95

Below we illustrate and prove that 9 and 95 multiply to 855 and add up to 104:

9 × 95 = 855
9 + 95 = 104

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

x² + 104x + 855 = 0

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

(x + 9 ) (x + 95)

To summarize, since 9 and 95 multiply to 855 and add up 104, you know that the following is true:

x² + 104x + 855 = (x + 9 ) (x + 95)
