What two numbers multiply to -366 and add up to 365?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -366 and add up to 365?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 366

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 366 multiply to -366 and add up to 365:

-1 × 366 = -366
-1 + 366 = 365

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

x² + 365x - 366 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 366)

To summarize, since -1 and 366 multiply to -366 and add up 365, you know that the following is true:

x² + 365x - 366 = (x - 1 ) (x + 366)
