What two numbers multiply to 966 and add up to 65?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 966 and add up to 65?"

The answer to your question is:

23 and 42

Below we illustrate and prove that 23 and 42 multiply to 966 and add up to 65:

23 × 42 = 966
23 + 42 = 65

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

x² + 65x + 966 = 0

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

(x + 23 ) (x + 42)

To summarize, since 23 and 42 multiply to 966 and add up 65, you know that the following is true:

x² + 65x + 966 = (x + 23 ) (x + 42)
