What two numbers multiply to -333 and add up to 332?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -333 and add up to 332?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 333

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 333 multiply to -333 and add up to 332:

-1 × 333 = -333
-1 + 333 = 332

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

x² + 332x - 333 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 333)

To summarize, since -1 and 333 multiply to -333 and add up 332, you know that the following is true:

x² + 332x - 333 = (x - 1 ) (x + 333)
