There do not exist any 2 numbers that can multiply to give you 180 and add to give you -3.
The closest combination would be 12 and 15.
12 x 15 = 180 CORRECT
12 + 15 = 27 INCORRECT
12 x -15 = -180 INCORRECT
12 + -15 = -3 CORRECT
-12 x -15 = 180 CORRECT
-12 + -15 = -27 INCORRECT
As you can see, these combinations only allow you to get 1 of the 2 but you can not go both scenarios occurring at the same time.
(Let me just say, that if you are trying to factorise a quadratic equation, it will not work and you will not get any solutions. There aren't any factors which multiply to give you 180 and add to give -3.)
Hope that helps.

301 is a prime number. Therefore only two numbers multiplied together to give 301 is itself and 1.

The only integer solution to this question is 2 and 2 which give 4 when they are added together or multiplied together. If you do not limit yourself to integers, then any pair of numbers, x and x/(x-1) will fit the bill where x not = 1. Their sum and product are x^2 / (x-1).

(x - 1)(x + 3) Think of 2 numbers which added together give +2 and which multiplied together give -3
