What two numbers multiply to 879 and add up to 296?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 879 and add up to 296?"

The answer to your question is:

3 and 293

Below we illustrate and prove that 3 and 293 multiply to 879 and add up to 296:

3 × 293 = 879
3 + 293 = 296

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

x² + 296x + 879 = 0

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

(x + 3 ) (x + 293)

To summarize, since 3 and 293 multiply to 879 and add up 296, you know that the following is true:

x² + 296x + 879 = (x + 3 ) (x + 293)
