What two numbers multiply to 980 and add up to 249?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 980 and add up to 249?"

The answer to your question is:

4 and 245

Below we illustrate and prove that 4 and 245 multiply to 980 and add up to 249:

4 × 245 = 980
4 + 245 = 249

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

x² + 249x + 980 = 0

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

(x + 4 ) (x + 245)

To summarize, since 4 and 245 multiply to 980 and add up 249, you know that the following is true:

x² + 249x + 980 = (x + 4 ) (x + 245)
