What two numbers multiply to 935 and add up to 72?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 935 and add up to 72?"

The answer to your question is:

17 and 55

Below we illustrate and prove that 17 and 55 multiply to 935 and add up to 72:

17 × 55 = 935
17 + 55 = 72

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

x² + 72x + 935 = 0

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

(x + 17 ) (x + 55)

To summarize, since 17 and 55 multiply to 935 and add up 72, you know that the following is true:

x² + 72x + 935 = (x + 17 ) (x + 55)
