Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 882 and add up to -153?"
The answer to your question is:
-147 and -6
Below we illustrate and prove that -147 and -6 multiply to 882 and add up to -153:
-147 × -6 = 882
-147 + -6 = -153
Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?
x2 - 153x + 882 = 0
If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:
(x - 147 ) (x - 6)
To summarize, since -147 and -6 multiply to 882 and add up -153, you know that the following is true:
x2 - 153x + 882 = (x - 147 ) (x - 6)
