Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 976 and add up to 248?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 244

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 244 multiply to 976 and add up to 248:

4 × 244 = 976
4 + 244 = 248

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

x² + 248x + 976 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 244)

To summarize, since 4 and 244 multiply to 976 and add up 248, you know that the following is true:

x² + 248x + 976 = (x + 4 ) (x + 244)
