What two numbers multiply to 111 and add up to 112?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 111 and add up to 112?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 111

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 111 multiply to 111 and add up to 112:

1 × 111 = 111
1 + 111 = 112

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

x² + 112x + 111 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 111)

To summarize, since 1 and 111 multiply to 111 and add up 112, you know that the following is true:

x² + 112x + 111 = (x + 1 ) (x + 111)
