What two numbers multiply to 938 and add up to -141?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 938 and add up to -141?"

The answer to your question is:

-134 and -7

Below we illustrate and prove that -134 and -7 multiply to 938 and add up to -141:

-134 × -7 = 938
-134 + -7 = -141

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

x² - 141x + 938 = 0

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

(x - 134 ) (x - 7)

To summarize, since -134 and -7 multiply to 938 and add up -141, you know that the following is true:

x² - 141x + 938 = (x - 134 ) (x - 7)
