What two numbers multiply to 980 and add up to 147?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 980 and add up to 147?"

The answer to your question is:

7 and 140

Below we illustrate and prove that 7 and 140 multiply to 980 and add up to 147:

7 × 140 = 980
7 + 140 = 147

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

x² + 147x + 980 = 0

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

(x + 7 ) (x + 140)

To summarize, since 7 and 140 multiply to 980 and add up 147, you know that the following is true:

x² + 147x + 980 = (x + 7 ) (x + 140)
