What two numbers multiply to 861 and add up to 62?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 861 and add up to 62?"

The answer to your question is:

21 and 41

Below we illustrate and prove that 21 and 41 multiply to 861 and add up to 62:

21 × 41 = 861
21 + 41 = 62

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

x² + 62x + 861 = 0

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

(x + 21 ) (x + 41)

To summarize, since 21 and 41 multiply to 861 and add up 62, you know that the following is true:

x² + 62x + 861 = (x + 21 ) (x + 41)
