What two numbers multiply to 956 and add up to 243?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 956 and add up to 243?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 239

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 239 multiply to 956 and add up to 243:

4 × 239 = 956
4 + 239 = 243

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

x² + 243x + 956 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 239)

To summarize, since 4 and 239 multiply to 956 and add up 243, you know that the following is true:

x² + 243x + 956 = (x + 4 ) (x + 239)
