What two numbers multiply to -914 and add up to 913?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -914 and add up to 913?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 914

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 914 multiply to -914 and add up to 913:

-1 × 914 = -914
-1 + 914 = 913

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

x² + 913x - 914 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 914)

To summarize, since -1 and 914 multiply to -914 and add up 913, you know that the following is true:

x² + 913x - 914 = (x - 1 ) (x + 914)
