What two numbers multiply to 960 and add up to 166?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 960 and add up to 166?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 160

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 160 multiply to 960 and add up to 166:

6 × 160 = 960
6 + 160 = 166

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

x² + 166x + 960 = 0

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

(x + 6 ) (x + 160)

To summarize, since 6 and 160 multiply to 960 and add up 166, you know that the following is true:

x² + 166x + 960 = (x + 6 ) (x + 160)
