i need to know what times what equal -240 but adds the same number to get -14

Question

what times what equal -240 but also adds the same number to get -14

Answer 1

First, do L.C.M to get factors of 240

240

2*2*2*2 *3 *5

( 2*2*2 *3 ) * ( 2* 5 )

( 8*3 ) * (2*5)

24 * 10

So, -24 + 10 = -14, -24 * 10 = -240

So, the numbers are -24 , 10

STEPS:

1) Find the factors (By doing L.C.M)

2) Try different combinations to get the condition given in the question.
