What two numbers multiply to -803 and add up to -802?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -803 and add up to -802?"

The answer to your question is:

-803 and 1

Below we illustrate and prove that -803 and 1 multiply to -803 and add up to -802:

-803 × 1 = -803
-803 + 1 = -802

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

x² - 802x - 803 = 0

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

(x - 803 ) (x + 1)

To summarize, since -803 and 1 multiply to -803 and add up -802, you know that the following is true:

x² - 802x - 803 = (x - 803 ) (x + 1)
