What two numbers multiply to -603 and add up to 602?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -603 and add up to 602?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 603

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 603 multiply to -603 and add up to 602:

-1 × 603 = -603
-1 + 603 = 602

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

x² + 602x - 603 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 603)

To summarize, since -1 and 603 multiply to -603 and add up 602, you know that the following is true:

x² + 602x - 603 = (x - 1 ) (x + 603)
