What two numbers multiply to 880 and add up to 224?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 880 and add up to 224?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 220

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 220 multiply to 880 and add up to 224:

4 × 220 = 880
4 + 220 = 224

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

x² + 224x + 880 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 220)

To summarize, since 4 and 220 multiply to 880 and add up 224, you know that the following is true:

x² + 224x + 880 = (x + 4 ) (x + 220)
