What two numbers multiply to 946 and add up to 97?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 946 and add up to 97?"

The answer to your question is:

11 and 86

Below we illustrate and prove that 11 and 86 multiply to 946 and add up to 97:

11 × 86 = 946
11 + 86 = 97

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

x² + 97x + 946 = 0

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

(x + 11 ) (x + 86)

To summarize, since 11 and 86 multiply to 946 and add up 97, you know that the following is true:

x² + 97x + 946 = (x + 11 ) (x + 86)
