What two numbers multiply to 989 and add up to 66?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 989 and add up to 66?"

The answer to your question is:

23 and 43

Below we illustrate and prove that 23 and 43 multiply to 989 and add up to 66:

23 × 43 = 989
23 + 43 = 66

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

x² + 66x + 989 = 0

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

(x + 23 ) (x + 43)

To summarize, since 23 and 43 multiply to 989 and add up 66, you know that the following is true:

x² + 66x + 989 = (x + 23 ) (x + 43)
