What two numbers multiply to 896 and add up to 120?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 896 and add up to 120?"

The answer to your question is:

8 and 112

Below we illustrate and prove that 8 and 112 multiply to 896 and add up to 120:

8 × 112 = 896
8 + 112 = 120

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

x² + 120x + 896 = 0

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

(x + 8 ) (x + 112)

To summarize, since 8 and 112 multiply to 896 and add up 120, you know that the following is true:

x² + 120x + 896 = (x + 8 ) (x + 112)
