Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 888 and add up to 119?"

The answer to your question is:

8 and 111

Below we illustrate and prove that 8 and 111 multiply to 888 and add up to 119:

8 × 111 = 888
8 + 111 = 119

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

x² + 119x + 888 = 0
