What two numbers multiply to 858 and add up to 79?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 858 and add up to 79?"

The answer to your question is:

13 and 66

Below we illustrate and prove that 13 and 66 multiply to 858 and add up to 79:

13 × 66 = 858
13 + 66 = 79

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

x² + 79x + 858 = 0

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

(x + 13 ) (x + 66)

To summarize, since 13 and 66 multiply to 858 and add up 79, you know that the following is true:

x² + 79x + 858 = (x + 13 ) (x + 66)
