What two numbers multiply to -976 and add up to 975?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -976 and add up to 975?"

The answer to your question is:

-1 and 976

Below we illustrate and prove that -1 and 976 multiply to -976 and add up to 975:

-1 × 976 = -976
-1 + 976 = 975

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

x² + 975x - 976 = 0

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

(x - 1 ) (x + 976)

To summarize, since -1 and 976 multiply to -976 and add up 975, you know that the following is true:

x² + 975x - 976 = (x - 1 ) (x + 976)
