What two numbers multiply to 901 and add up to 70?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 901 and add up to 70?"

The answer to your question is:

17 and 53

Below we illustrate and prove that 17 and 53 multiply to 901 and add up to 70:

17 × 53 = 901
17 + 53 = 70

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

x² + 70x + 901 = 0

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

(x + 17 ) (x + 53)

To summarize, since 17 and 53 multiply to 901 and add up 70, you know that the following is true:

x² + 70x + 901 = (x + 17 ) (x + 53)
