What two numbers multiply to -764 and add up to 763?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -764 and add up to 763?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 764

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 764 multiply to -764 and add up to 763:

-1 × 764 = -764
-1 + 764 = 763

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

x² + 763x - 764 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 764)

To summarize, since -1 and 764 multiply to -764 and add up 763, you know that the following is true:

x² + 763x - 764 = (x - 1 ) (x + 764)
