What two numbers multiply to 960 and add up to 68?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 960 and add up to 68?"

The answer to your question is:

20 and 48

Below we illustrate and prove that 20 and 48 multiply to 960 and add up to 68:

20 × 48 = 960
20 + 48 = 68

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

x² + 68x + 960 = 0

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

(x + 20 ) (x + 48)

To summarize, since 20 and 48 multiply to 960 and add up 68, you know that the following is true:

x² + 68x + 960 = (x + 20 ) (x + 48)
