Given AM and GM, can we find the numbers? Let's learn how to move in the reverse direction. In this video, we approach this problem through the world of quadratic equations.

The roots of this equation, turns out, are the numbers we're looking for! Courses on Khan Academy are always 100% free. Start practicing—and saving your progress—now!
