What two numbers multiply to get -42 and add to 11
nataly862011 [7]
To find out the answer, let's factor out -42 (as if it's a positive number).

42: 1 x 42, 2 x 21, 3 x 14, 6 x 7.

With these given factors and due to the product being negative, we will go on and off with them being negative to find which sum up to 11.

Let's try 1 and 42.

-1 + 42 = 41
-42 + 1 = -41.

1 x 41 is not our answer.

Let's try 2 and 21.

2 - 21 = -19
-2 + 21 = 19

2 x 21 is not our answer.

Let's try 3 and 14.

-3 + 14 = 11
3 - 14 = -11.

Your answer is:

-3 and 14 sum up to 11 and make a product of -42.

-3 and 14 are your numbers.

I hope this helps!
