What two numbers multiply to -577 and add up to 576?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -577 and add up to 576?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 577

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 577 multiply to -577 and add up to 576:

-1 × 577 = -577
-1 + 577 = 576

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

x² + 576x - 577 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 577)

To summarize, since -1 and 577 multiply to -577 and add up 576, you know that the following is true:

x² + 576x - 577 = (x - 1 ) (x + 577)
