Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -683 and add up to -682?"
The answer to your question is:
-683 and 1
Below we illustrate and prove that -683 and 1 multiply to -683 and add up to -682:
-683 × 1 = -683
-683 + 1 = -682
Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?
x2 - 682x - 683 = 0
If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:
(x - 683 ) (x + 1)
To summarize, since -683 and 1 multiply to -683 and add up -682, you know that the following is true:
x2 - 682x - 683 = (x - 683 ) (x + 1)
