What two numbers multiply to 875 and add up to 180?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 875 and add up to 180?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 175

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 175 multiply to 875 and add up to 180:

5 × 175 = 875
5 + 175 = 180

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

x² + 180x + 875 = 0

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

(x + 5 ) (x + 175)

To summarize, since 5 and 175 multiply to 875 and add up 180, you know that the following is true:

x² + 180x + 875 = (x + 5 ) (x + 175)
