What two numbers multiply to 928 and add up to -124?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 928 and add up to -124?"

The answer to your question is:

-116 and -8

Below we illustrate and prove that -116 and -8 multiply to 928 and add up to -124:

-116 × -8 = 928
-116 + -8 = -124

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

x² - 124x + 928 = 0

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

(x - 116 ) (x - 8)

To summarize, since -116 and -8 multiply to 928 and add up -124, you know that the following is true:

x² - 124x + 928 = (x - 116 ) (x - 8)
