\[ (x-p_1)(x-p_2) = xx-p_1x-p_2x+(-p_1)(-p_2)=x^2-(p_1+p_2)x+p_1p_2 \]
This means \[ p_1+p_2=63 \]And \[ p_1p_2=n \]
So, what two prime numbers add up to \(63\)?
Here are some prime numbers \[ 2,\; 3,\; 5,\; 7,\; 11,\; 13,\; 17,\; 19,\; 23,\; 29,\; 31,\; 37,\; 41,\; 43,\; 47,\; 53,\; 59,\; 61 \]
Pick two that add up to \(63\).
