What two numbers multiply to 129 and add up to 130?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 129 and add up to 130?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 129

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 129 multiply to 129 and add up to 130:

1 × 129 = 129
1 + 129 = 130

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

x² + 130x + 129 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 129)

To summarize, since 1 and 129 multiply to 129 and add up 130, you know that the following is true:

x² + 130x + 129 = (x + 1 ) (x + 129)
