What two numbers multiply to 107 and add up to 108?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 107 and add up to 108?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 107

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 107 multiply to 107 and add up to 108:

1 × 107 = 107
1 + 107 = 108

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

x² + 108x + 107 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 107)

To summarize, since 1 and 107 multiply to 107 and add up 108, you know that the following is true:

x² + 108x + 107 = (x + 1 ) (x + 107)
