$x^{2} - 11 x + 24 = (x - 3) (x - 8)$ $x^2-11x+24=(x-3)(x-8)$

$x^{2} - 11 x + 24$ $x^2-11x+24$

Find two numbers that when added equal $- 11$ $-11$ and when multiplied equal $24$ $24$ . The numbers $- 3$ $-3$ and $- 8$ $-8$ meet the criteria.

$x^{2} - 11 x + 24 = (x - 3) (x - 8)$ $x^2-11x+24=(x-3)(x-8)$
