Question

what adds up to 3 and multiplies to -30?

Answer 1

A couple of different things. Which one would you like and how do you propose we find it?

Answer 2

the same 2 numbers that do both things

Answer 3

1

Answer 4

Okay, that doesn't quite mean enough. Do you mean this?

Take the number 124.

This "adds up" to 1+2+4 = 7
This "multiplies" to 1*2*4 = 8

I hope you don't mean that, since we might have a hard time with the negative result.

Answer 5

Are you sure its not adds up to 13? I can't figure anything else out. 15 and -2 if so...

Answer 6

no I mean ex. -14n-51 ----- (n-17)(n+3)=0 -------- -17*3=-51 and -17+3=-14

Answer 7

then that makes our lives difficult lol and did u mean +17 +3=14 in your example?
