What two numbers multiply to 925 and add up to -190?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 925 and add up to -190?"

The answer to your question is:

-185 and -5

Below we illustrate and prove that -185 and -5 multiply to 925 and add up to -190:

-185 × -5 = 925
-185 + -5 = -190

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

x² - 190x + 925 = 0

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

(x - 185 ) (x - 5)

To summarize, since -185 and -5 multiply to 925 and add up -190, you know that the following is true:

x² - 190x + 925 = (x - 185 ) (x - 5)
