What two numbers multiply to 136 and add up to 137?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 136 and add up to 137?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 136

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 136 multiply to 136 and add up to 137:

1 × 136 = 136
1 + 136 = 137

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

x² + 137x + 136 = 0

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

(x + 1 ) (x + 136)

To summarize, since 1 and 136 multiply to 136 and add up 137, you know that the following is true:

x² + 137x + 136 = (x + 1 ) (x + 136)
