What two numbers multiply to -325 and add up to 324?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -325 and add up to 324?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 325

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 325 multiply to -325 and add up to 324:

-1 × 325 = -325
-1 + 325 = 324

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 324x - 325 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x - 1 ) (x + 325)

To summarize, since -1 and 325 multiply to -325 and add up 324, you know that the following is true:

x² + 324x - 325 = (x - 1 ) (x + 325)
